The fibroblasts were directly converted into iPULs (induced pulmonary epithelial-like cells)—functionally akin to native AT2 ...

Effects of embryonic origin, tissue cues and pathological signals on fibroblast diversity in humans. Nature Cell Biology , 2025; 27 (5): 720 DOI: 10.1038/s41556-025-01638-5 Cite This Page : ...

Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are a type of polypeptide growth factor that is involved in the repair of damaged tissues such as skin, muscle, nervous tissue, and blood vessels.

Fibroblasts play a central role in maintaining healthy tissue structures, as well as in the development and progression of diseases. For a long time, these specialised connective tissue cells were ...

University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center scientists found that activating fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) exclusively in the fat tissue of adult male mice prolonged lifespan under sustained ...

The four-year-old biotech raised about $75 million in a Series A round that involved nine venture capital firms.

Central nervous system fibroblasts are found in the meninges (protective membranes surrounding the CNS), the connective tissue of the choroid plexus (which produces the cerebrospinal fluid), and ...
