Figure 1: PPFs contain Gata4 + muscle connective tissue fibroblasts that migrate independently and in advance of myogenic cells. Figure 2: Deletion of Gata4 in the PPFs produces localized amuscular ...
The increased deposition of connective tissue is a problem in chronic diseases of many organs such as the lungs (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis), liver (cirrhosis), kidneys (kidney fibrosis), gut ...
Connective tissue diseases can be genetic or autoimmune. Symptoms may vary by disease and can include pain and fatigue. Each disease has its own treatment options. Connective tissue holds the cells of ...

A study has reached a major milestone in establishing a baseline understanding of gene expression across healthy human tissues, and linking genes to disease. Our genomes help to determine who we are - ...
A connective tissue protein known to support the framework of organs also encourages immune responses that fight bacterial infections, while restraining responses that can be deadly in the condition ...
Scientists have developed a synthetic tissue that repairs injuries and restores normal erectile function in a pig model, in a study publishing January 4 in the journal Matter. The findings suggest ...
