Telomerase-mediated immortalization of human vaginal wall fibroblasts derived from patients with pelvic organ prolapse
Abstract. Background:. Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling is the most important pathomechanism of pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Fibroblasts are the key to ECM regulation. The passaging capacity of human vaginal wall fibroblasts (hVWFs) is limited in vitro. Here, we aimed to immortalize hVWFs throu...
