Keratinocyte-releasable factors modulate extracellular matrix components in dermal fibroblasts
A fine balance between the synthesis and degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) is required in maintaining the structural integrity of healing tissue. An imbalance in ECM expression leads to fibrotic conditions such as hypertrophic scars (HS). It has been demonstrated that keratinocyte-releasable...
