Distinct cAMP regulation in scleroderma lung and skin myofibroblasts governs their dedifferentiation via p38α inhibition

Jared D. Baas, John Varga, Carol A. Feghali‐Bostwick…·Sean M. Fortier

This study compares cAMP regulation and dedifferentiation in lung and skin myofibroblasts from scleroderma patients, finding tissue-specific differences in PGE2 response and p38 inhibition effects.
