10 Jun 2019
Abstract excerpt
A keloid is a benign fibroproliferative skin tumor that results from abnormal wound healing after injury and tends to grow beyond the boundary of the original wound; the mechanism of keloid formation is still unclear. MicroRNA-21 (MiR-21) is a representative microRNA that plays a key role in a variety of fibrotic diseases via the transforming growth factor-β/Smad signaling pathway. The aim of our study was to...
