CXCL12/CXCR4-Mediated Procollagen Secretion Is Coupled To Cullin-RING Ubiquitin Ligase Activation
Abstract Tissue fibrosis is mediated by the actions of multiple pro-fibrotic proteins that can induce myofibroblast phenoconversion through diverse signaling pathways coupled predominantly to Smads or MEK/Erk proteins. The TGFβ/TGFβR and CXCL12/CXCR4 axes induce myofibroblast phenoconversion indepen...
