Human cardiac fibroblasts adaptive responses to controlled combined mechanical strain and oxygen changes in vitro

Upon cardiac pathological conditions such as ischemia, microenvironmental changes instruct a series of cellular responses that trigger cardiac fibroblasts-mediated tissue adaptation and inflammation. A comprehensive model of how early environmental changes may induce cardiac fibroblasts (CF) patholo...
