Functional genomics uncovers the transcription factor BNC2 as required for myofibroblastic activation in fibrosis

Myofibroblasts contribute to the development of liver fibrosis. Here, the authors report that the transcription factor Basonuclin 2 (BNC2) integrates fibrogenic signals and drives myofibroblastic transcriptional activation in liver fibrosis.
