Tenascin-C activation of lung fibroblasts in a 3D synthetic lung extracellular matrix mimic
2023-02-24
Abstract excerpt
The lung extracellular matrix (ECM) maintains the structural integrity of the tissue and regulates the phenotype and functions of resident fibroblasts. Lung-metastatic breast cancer alters these cell-ECM interactions, promoting fibroblast activation. There is a need for bio-instructive ECM models that contain the ECM composition and biomechanics of the lung to study these cell-matrix interactions in vitro . Here,...
