A comprehensive proteomic map of liver fibrosis progression and healing in two mouse models identifies etiology-specific extracellular matrix components, laying the foundation for targeted ...
When an organ is injured, our body initiates a healing process. If the injury is repeated or chronic, it can lead to an excessive accumulation of fibrous tissue and cause alterations in the structure ...
The researchers injected both transgenic and wild-type mice with carbon tetrachloride, which induces liver fibrosis via increased formation of free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS).
