What are the Therapeutic Implications of Modulating Fibroblast Proliferation?
Modulating fibroblast proliferation has significant therapeutic potential. In conditions like fibrosis, inhibiting fibroblast proliferation could help reduce tissue scarring and preserve organ function. Conversely, promoting fibroblast proliferation might be beneficial in treating chronic wounds or enhancing tissue regeneration. Targeted therapies that modulate specific signaling pathways involved in fibroblast activity are being explored to achieve these goals.
