Human mast cell basic fibroblast growth factor in pulmonary fibrotic disorders.

Mast cells (MCs) are abundant in fibrotic tissue, although their role in fibrogenesis remains obscure. Recent studies suggest MCs may produce basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). To evaluate the hypothesis that MC bFGF contributes to the fibrotic response in human interstitial lung disease, we stu...
