Regulation of secretory granule formation in chronically hypersecretory melanotrophs in the rat pituitary.

abstract：:Fibrosis is the result of a wound-healing response that fails to restore normal tissue structure function. One of the critical hallmarks of fibrosis is disrupted collagen remodeling. In tissue homeostasis, the production, deposition and organization of collagen is balanced by the degradation and remodeling of collagen...
