Origins of cardiac fibroblasts [PDF]
Cardiac fibroblasts produce the extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffold within which the various cellular components of the heart are organized. As well as providing structural support, it is becoming evident that the quality and quantity of ECM is a key factor for determining cardiac cell behavior during development and in pathological contexts such as ...

REV-ERB is essential in cardiac fibroblasts homeostasis [PDF]
REV-ERB agonists have shown antifibrotic effects in the heart and other organs. The function of REV-ERB in the cardiac fibroblasts remains unstudied. Here, we characterize the functional difference of REV-ERB in mouse embryonic fibroblasts and cardiac ...

Cardiac fibroblasts support cardiac inflammation in heart failure
Cardiac remodeling and inflammation are hallmarks of cardiac failure and correlate with outcome in patients. However, the basis for the development of both remains unclear. We have previously reported that cardiac inflammation triggers transdifferentiation of fibroblasts to myofibroblasts and therefore increase accumulation of cardiac collagen, one key

Cardiac fibroblasts regulate sympathetic nerve sprouting and neurocardiac synapse stability.
Sympathetic nervous system (SNS) plays a key role in cardiac homeostasis and its deregulations always associate with bad clinical outcomes. To date, little is known about molecular mechanisms regulating cardiac sympathetic innervation.

Peripheral nerve fibroblasts secrete neurotrophic factors to promote axon growth of motoneurons
Peripheral nerve fibroblasts play a critical role in nerve development and regeneration. Our previous study found that peripheral nerve fibroblasts have different sensory and motor phenotypes.

Conservation of miR combo based direct cardiac reprogramming
There is considerable interest in regenerating the injured heart by reprogramming resident fibroblasts into new functional cardiomyocytes. Cardiac reprogramming has been achieved via transcription factors or miRNAs.

The permanent cellular constituents of the heart include cardiac fibroblasts, myocytes, endothelial cells, and vascular smooth muscle cells. Previous studies have demonstrated that there are undulating changes in cardiac cell populations during embryonic development, through neonatal development and into the adult.
