CTGF is a central mediator of tissue remodeling and fibrosis and its inhibition can reverse the process of fibrosis
CTGF is a secreted matricellular protein with very complex biology. It has been shown to modulate many signaling pathways leading to cell adhesion and migration, angiogenesis, myofibroblast activation, and extracellular matrix deposition and remodeling, which together lead to tissue remodeling and f...
