CD8+ T cells drive myofibroblast activation and contraction via JAK/STAT3 and TGFβ signaling

2025-03-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Fibrosis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in rheumatic connective tissue diseases. In these conditions, fibrotic tissues are characterized by the infiltration of CD8+ T cells and pro-fibrotic myofibroblasts. However, the role of CD8+ T cells in driving myofibroblast activity remains unexplored. Our aim was to investigate this interaction between CD8+ T cells and skin myofibroblasts...
