Cripto shapes macrophage plasticity and restricts EndMT in injured and diseased skeletal muscle
27 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
Macrophages are characterized by a high plasticity in response to changes in tissue microenvironment, which allows them to acquire different phenotypes and to exert essential functions in complex processes, such as tissue regeneration. Here, we report that the membrane protein Cripto plays a key role in shaping macrophage plasticity in skeletal muscle during regeneration and disease. Conditional deletion of...
