Cardiac Fibrosis and Fibroblasts [PDF]
Cardiac fibrosis is the excess deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM), such as collagen. Myofibroblasts are major players in the production of collagen, and are differentiated primarily from resident fibroblasts. Collagen can compensate for the dead cells produced by injury.

The pathogenesis of cardiac fibrosis [PDF]
Cardiac fibrosis is characterized by net accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins in the cardiac interstitium, and contributes to both systolic and diastolic dysfunction in many cardiac pathophysiologic conditions. This review discusses the cellular effectors and molecular pathways implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiac fibrosis.

Chemokines and cardiac fibrosis [PDF]
Several members of the chemokine family play an important role in reparative fibrosis and are involved in the pathogenesis of remodeling following myocardial infarction. Chemokines may regulate the fibrotic process through recruitment and activation of mononuclear cell subsets and fibroblast progenitors (fibrocytes), by exerting direct effects on ...

Endothelins and Cardiac Fibrosis [PDF]
To the Editor: In the March issue of Hypertension , Dr Hocher and colleagues reported on the role of the endothelin (ET) system in the cardiac remodeling of renovascular hypertension.1 According to their findings, both fibrosis of the left ventricle (LV) and hypertrophy of intracardiac arteries were markedly prevented in the 2-kidney, 1-clip (2K1C ...

ADAMTS8 Promotes Cardiac Fibrosis Partly Through Activating EGFR Dependent Pathway
Myocardial infarction or pressure overload leads to cardiac fibrosis, the leading cause of heart failure. ADAMTS8 (A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 8) has been reported to be involved in many fibrosis-related diseases ...
