Fibronectins are multifunctional glycoproteins that are important components of the extracellular matrix in normal and fibrotic liver. Multiple fibronectin isoforms are generated from a single gene by alternative splicing of the primary transcript at the domains EIIIA, EIIIB, and V. The aim of this
Cholestatic liver diseases, such as cystic fibrosis (CF) liver disease and biliary atresia, predominate as causes of childhood cirrhosis. Despite diverse etiologies, the stereotypic final pathway involves fibrogenesis where hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are recruited, producing excess collagen which
