Anastomotic stenosis of bioengineered trachea grafts is driven by transforming growth factor β1-induced signaling, proinflammatory macrophages, and delayed epithelializationCentral MessagePerspective

Objective: Anastomotic stenosis caused by hypertrophic granulation tissue often develops in response to orthotopically implanted bioengineered tracheal grafts. To determine mechanisms responsible for the development and persistence of this granulation tissue, we looked for changes in gene expression...
