## Abstract The influence of mast cells upon aberrant wound repair and excessive fibrosis has supportive evidence, but the mechanism for these mast cell activities is unclear. It is proposed that heterocellular gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC) between fibroblasts and mast cells direc
