• The Pathogenesis of Cardiac Fibrosis (2013, neutral): “Although the role of Th2 cells in the pathogenesis of hepatic [106] and pulmonary fibrosis [107] is well established, direct evidence on the involvement of Th2 cells in cardiac fibrosis is lacking.”
• The myofibroblast matrix: implications for tissue repair and fibrosis (2013, neutral): “The contribution of myofibroblastsand their elaborated ECM to normal and pathologic tissue repair [3]has been well-studied in lung [4-6], liver [7-9], kidney [10,11], skeletal muscle [12], systemic sclerosis [13-15], heart [16-18], and the stromal reaction to tumours[19,20].”
