TGF-β in fibrosis by acting as a conductor for contractile properties of myofibroblasts

1 Dec 2019

Abstract excerpt

Myofibroblasts are non-muscle contractile cells that play a key physiologically role in organs such as the stem villi of the human placenta during physiological pregnancy. They are able to contract and relax in response to changes in the volume of the intervillous chamber. Myofibroblasts have also been observed in several diseases and are involved in wound healing and the fibrotic processes affecting several...
