Design and Evaluation of a Polypeptide That Mimics the Integrin Binding Site for EDA Fibronectin to Block Profibrotic Cell Activity

Fibrosis is characterized by excessive production of disorganized collagen- and fibronectin-rich extracellular matrices (ECMs) and is driven by the persistence of myofibroblasts within tissues. A key protein contributing to myofibroblast differentiation is extra domain A fibronectin (EDA-FN). We sou...
