Abstract: ABSTRACT Fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast differentiation is a highly important pathological characteristic of pulmonary fibrosis. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of baicalein on the differentiation of human lung fibroblasts. Baicalein reduced the… read more here.

Abstract: Extracellular matrix (ECM) play a double-edged sword role for controlling the differentiation of fibroblast toward contractile myofibroblast in the wound healing process. However, the exact structure-function relationship between ECM morphology and fibroblast behaviors still remains… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12931-021-01916-4
Abstract: Background Pulmonary fibrosis is thought to be driven by recurrent alveolar epithelial injury which leads to the differentiation of fibroblasts into α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA)-expressing myofibroblasts and subsequent deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM). Transforming growth… read more here.
