Vicious cycle of FIBROSIS. Innate immune signaling alters self-limited repair into sustained fibrogenic process. Following injury, fibroblasts undergo a regulated activation. Once repair has been accomplished, tissue regeneration is complete. Prolonged injury leads to damage, causes activation of toll like receptors and sustained fibroblast activation culminating in excessive fibrogenesis.
