09/20/23
Publication Title:
Slow Interstitial Fluid Flow Activates TGF-B Signaling and Drives Fibrotic Responses in Human Tenon Fibroblasts
Advanced BioMatrix Products Used:
PureCol® Type I Collagen, Atelocollagen, 3 mg/ml
How the products were used:
Researchers used PureCol® Collagen Hydrogels to discover how slow interstitial fluid flow activates TGF-B signaling.
Article Conclusion:
Slow interstitial fluid flow is sufficient to induce fibrosis, could underlie the intractable nature of fibrosis following filtering glaucoma surgery and might be a target for antifibrotic therapy.
