Modulating Myofibroblastic Differentiation of Fibroblasts through Actin-MRTF Signaling Axis by Micropatterned Surfaces for Suppressed Implant-Induced Fibrosis
Myofibroblasts, the primary effector cells for implant-induced fibrosis, contribute to this process by secreting excessive collagen-rich matrix and contracting. Thus, approaches that suppress myofibroblasts may achieve desirable suppression effects in the fibrotic process. As one of the important ph...
