Liver macrophages are central in maintaining hepatic homeostasis and mediating immune responses during liver injury, including fibrosis. Macrophages may have proinflammatory or antiinflammatory properties, but which properties influence fibrosis remains unclear. To explore the role of macrophages in liver fibrosis, we performed single-cell RNA-seq in a mouse model of liver injury and found that macrophage...
