Verteporfin ameliorates fibrotic aspects of Dupuytren’s disease nodular fibroblasts irrespective the activation state of the cells
Abstract Dupuytren’s disease is a chronic, progressive fibroproliferative condition of the hand fascia which results in digital contraction. So far, treatments do not directly interfere with the (myo)fibroblasts that are responsible for the formation of the collagen-rich cords and its contraction. H...
