Proteomics identifies differences in fibrotic potential of extracellular vesicles from human tendon and muscle fibroblasts
Abstract Background Fibroblasts are the powerhouses responsible for the production and assembly of extracellular matrix (ECM). Their activity needs to be tightly controlled especially within the musculoskeletal system, where changes to ECM composition affect force transmission and mechanical loading...
