Mortalin deficiency suppresses fibrosis and induces apoptosis in keloid spheroids

Abstract Mortalin (Mot) is a mitochondrial chaperone of the heat shock protein 70 family and it’s pro-proliferative and anti-apoptosis functions could be associated with keloid pathogenesis, and blocking of mortalin and its interaction with p53 might be a potential novel target for the treatment of...
