Biomimetic design of bioartificial scaffolds for the in vitro modelling of human cardiac fibrosis

In vitro models of pathological cardiac tissue have attracted interest as predictive platforms for preclinical validation of therapies. However, models reproducing specific pathological features, such as cardiac fibrosis size (i.e., thickness and width) and stage of development are missing. This res...
