Experimental Animal Models of Fibrosis: Relevance and Considerations for Translational Health Research
Journal Title: International Journal of Zoology and Animal Biology - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Tissue fibrosis is a set of progressive debilitating diseases which although initiate as a normal wound healing response to an injury, end up with hyperactivated immunological state leading to overwhelming deposition of extra cellular matrix (ECM) components by activated fibroblasts. About 45% deaths in the US are attributed to fibrosis-associated organ damage
