Skin fibroblast functional heterogeneity in health and disease

WEBA key challenge in the field is to understand the functional relevance and significance of the identified new cell clusters in health and disease. Here, we discuss the functionally distinct fibroblast subtypes identified in skin homeostasis and repair and how they evolve in fibrotic disease conditions, in particular keloid scars and cancer
