Characterization of myofibroblasts isolated from the intestine of patients with inflammatory bowel disease

2019-03-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> : Intestinal fibrosis represents a serious complication of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), often necessitating surgical resections. Myofibroblasts are primarily responsible for interstitial matrix accumulation in fibrotic diseases.
