The role of the anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-10 in tissue fibrosis
Significance: Fibrosis is the endpoint of chronic disease in multiple organs, including the skin,
heart, lungs, intestine, liver, and kidneys. Pathologic accumulation of fibrotic tissue results …

Regenerative wound healing: The role of interleukin-10
Significance: Postnatal wounds heal with characteristic scar formation. In contrast, the mid-gestational
fetus is capable of regenerative healing, which results in wound repair that is …
