Endothelin is a downstream mediator of profibrotic responses to transforming growth factor beta in human lung fibroblasts.
OBJECTIVE: Fibrosis is excessive scarring caused by the accumulation and contraction of extracellular matrix proteins and is a common end pathway in many chronic diseases, including scleroderma (systemic sclerosis [SSc]). Indeed, pulmonary fibrosis is a major cause of death in SSc. Transforming gro...
