DNA Methylation of Fibroblast Phenotypes and Contributions to Lung Fibrosis.

Cells - 3 Aug 2021

Rajasekar Poojitha, Patel Jamie, Clifford Rachel L

Abstract excerpt

Fibroblasts are an integral part of connective tissue and play a crucial role in developing and modulating the structural framework of tissues by acting as the primary source of extracellular matrix (ECM). A precise definition of the fibroblast remains elusive. Lung fibroblasts orchestrate the assembly and turnover of ECM to facilitate gas exchange alongside performing immune functions including the secretion of...
