Systemic Sclerosis Immunoglobulin Induces Growth and a Pro-Fibrotic State in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells through the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor
OBJECTIVE: It has been suggested that autoantibodies in systemic sclerosis (SSc) may induce the differentiation of cultured fibroblasts into myofibroblasts through platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) activation. The present study aims to characterize the effects of SSc IgG on vascular sm...
