Mimicking Paracrine TGFβ1 Signals during Myofibroblast Differentiation in 3D Collagen Networks
Abstract TGFβ1 is a key regulator for induction of tissue remodeling after dermal wounding. We present a model of paracrine delivery of TGFβ1 for differentiation of dermal fibroblasts based on a fibrillar 3D collagen matrix and embedded TGFβ1 releasing microparticles. We found differentiation into m...
