Mechanosensing by the α6-integrin confers an invasive fibroblast phenotype and mediates lung fibrosis

Matrix stiffening is a feature of pulmonary fibrosis, and is amplified by lung myofibroblasts. Here the authors find that a6 integrin expression is upregulated on lung myofibroblasts in response to matrix stiffness, and this integrin is required for myofibroblast invasion, and fibrosis in an experim...

description Matrix stiffening is a feature of pulmonary fibrosis, and is amplified by lung myofibroblasts. Here the authors find that a6 integrin expression is upregulated on lung myofibroblasts in response to matrix stiffness, and this integrin is required for myofibroblast invasion, and fibrosis in an experimental disease model.
