High impact information on Connective Tissue Cells

The release of univalent, biologically active fibronectin fragments by elastase, a major physiologically released inflammatory protease of human leukocytes, suggests a new potential mechanism for alteration of cell connective tissue interactions at sites of inflammation in vivo [1].
GM-CSF increases airway smooth muscle cell connective tissue expression by inducing TGF-beta receptors [2].
