Regulation of Hepatic Stellate Cells and Fibrogenesis by Fibroblast Growth Factors
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are a family of growth factors critically involved in developmental, physiological, and pathological processes, including embryogenesis, angiogenesis, wound healing, and endocrine functions. In the liver, several FGFs are produced basally by hepatocytes and hepatic s...
