Scraping fibrosis: Expressway to the core of fibrosis [PDF]
Animal experiments using single organs as models of fibrosis spur therapeutic development toward promising targets, but testing of these therapies in human fibrosis yielded disappointing results and limited efficacy. Finding core pathways relevant in different organs that can become fibrotic will uncover molecules that will prove useful as therapeutic ...

Prokaryotic expression, purification and evaluation of anti-cardiac fibrosis activity of recombinant TGF-β latency associated peptide [PDF]
Background Cardiac fibrosis refers to the abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix in the heart, which leads to the formation of cardiac scars. It causes systolic and diastolic dysfunction, and ultimately leads to cardiac dysfunction and arrhythmia.

Research progress on multiple cell death pathways of podocytes in diabetic kidney disease
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the main cause of end-stage renal disease, and its clinical manifestations are progressive proteinuria, decreased glomerular filtration rate, and renal failure. The injury and death of glomerular podocytes are the keys to

Inflammasomes and Fibrosis [PDF]
Fibrosis is the final common pathway of inflammatory diseases in various organs. The inflammasomes play an important role in the progression of fibrosis as innate immune receptors. There are four main members of the inflammasomes, such as NOD-like receptor protein 1 (NLRP1), NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), NOD-like receptor C4 (NLRC4), and absent ...
