RECK-Mediated β1-Integrin Regulation by TGF-β1 Is Critical for Wound Contraction in Mice.

RECK-Mediated β1-Integrin Regulation by TGF-β1 Is Critical for Wound Contraction in Mice.

Fibroblasts are critical for wound contraction; a pivotal step in wound healing. They produce and modify the extracellular matrix (ECM) required for the proper tissue remodeling. Reversion-inducing cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK) is a key regulator of ECM homeostasis and turnover. How...
