Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Like Properties in Fibroblasts
Fibroblasts are biologically dynamic and morphologically heterogeneous and are the most abundant connective tissue cells, with diverse structures depending on their location and activity. The main function of fibroblasts is to maintain the structural integrity of connective tissues by continuously s...
