ECM crosslinking enhances fibroblast growth and protects against matrix proteolysis in lung fibrosis
(2017)
Journal Article
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is characterised by accumulation of extra cellular matrix (ECM) proteins and fibroblast proliferation. ECM cross-linking enzymes have been implicated in fibrotic diseases and we hypothesised that the ECM in IPF is...
