Discovery of Novel Small Molecules that Block Myofibroblast Formation: Implications for Capsular Contracture Treatment

Capsular contracture is a devastating complication that occurs in patients undergoing implant-based breast reconstruction. Ionizing radiation drives and exacerbates capsular contracture in part by activating cytokines, including transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β). TGF-β promotes myofibroblast d...
