SOX9 plays an essential role in myofibroblast driven hepatic granuloma integrity and parenchymal repair during schistosomiasis-induced liver damage
2025-01-25
Abstract excerpt
Schistosomiasis is a neglected, and potentially lethal, parasitic disease that affects hundreds of millions of people worldwide. As part of the schistosome lifecycle, parasite eggs accumulate within the liver where they evoke intense granulomatous pathology, typified by a dense extracellular matrix (ECM) barrier, which serves to contain toxic egg secretions.
