Regulation of Fibrotic Processes in the Liver by ADAM Proteases
Fibrosis in the liver is mainly associated with the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). Both activation and clearance of HSCs can be mediated by ligand−receptor interactions. Members of the a disintegrin and metalloprotease (ADAM) family are involved in the proteolytic release of...
