Abstract: Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is a structural protein component of caveolae, which are invaginations of the plasma membrane involved in various cellular processes, including endocytosis, extracellular matrix organization, cholesterol distribution, cell migration, and signaling. Mounting evidence over… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2017.00567
Abstract: Fibrosis is a process of dysfunctional wound repair, described by a failure of tissue regeneration and excessive deposition of extracellular matrix, resulting in tissue scarring and subsequent organ deterioration. There are a broad range of… read more here.
