Endoglin haploinsufficiency promotes fibroblast accumulation during wound healing through Akt activation.

Accurate regulation of dermal fibroblast function plays a crucial role in wound healing. Many fibrotic diseases are characterized by a failure to conclude normal tissue repair and the persistence of fibroblasts inside lesions. In the present study we demonstrate that endoglin haploinsufficiency prom...
