FK506-binding protein 10 (FKBP10) regulates lung fibroblast migration via collagen VI synthesis

Abstract Background In idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), fibroblasts gain a more migratory phenotype and excessively secrete extracellular matrix (ECM), ultimately leading to alveolar scarring and progressive dyspnea.
