Use of Patterned Collagen Coated Slides to Study Normal and Scleroderma Lung Fibroblast Migration

Use of Patterned Collagen Coated Slides to Study Normal and Scleroderma Lung Fibroblast Migration

Abstract Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a spreading fibrotic disease affecting the skin and internal organs. We aimed to model pathogenic fibroblast migration in SSc in order to identify enhancing factors, measure the effect of migrating cells on underlying extracellular matrix (ECM) and test possible...
