Decoding mechanosensitive genes in cardiac fibroblasts via 3D hydrogel models of fibrosis
Abstract Cardiac fibrosis arises from the abnormal activation of cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) in response to both chemical and mechanical stressors. While extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness is a key determinant of fibroblast behavior, the molecular mechanisms linking mechanical signals to gene expres...
