Pericytes in kidney fibrosis

29 May 2013

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Pericytes and perivascular fibroblasts have emerged as poorly appreciated yet extensive populations of mesenchymal cells in the kidney that play important roles in homeostasis and responses to injury. This review will update readers on the evolving understanding of the biology of these cells. RECENT FINDINGS: Fate mapping has identified pericytes and perivascular fibroblasts as the major source...
