This volume describes state-of-the-art protocols that serve as
“recipes” for scientists concentrating on fibrosis research. This
book is divided into four sections. Part I focuses on animal
models of fibrosis and covers topics such as mimicking fibrosis
in the lungs, skin, liver and heart, and generating transgenic
mouse models. Part II discusses cell culture systems, where the
chapters explore cell types important for the development of
fibrosis. Part III looks at the purification, quantification, and
analysis of the ECM proteins, and Part IV describes
computer-assisted methods such as quantifying fibrillar collagen
alignment and exploring the nano-surface of collagen with atomic
force microscopy (AFM). Written in the highly successful
