Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Enhances Transforming Growth Factor-β-Induced Extracellular Matrix Protein Production Through the P38/Activating Transcription Factor-2 Signaling Pathway in Keloid Fibroblasts

Keloids are benign dermal tumors, characterized by invasive growth of fibroblasts and concomitant increased biosynthesis of extracellular matrix components, with unclear etiology. We previously demonstrated that keloid fibroblasts overexpress insulin-like growth factor-I receptor. In investigating t...
