摘要：
Controversies remain over the standard procedures for the modeling of skin fibrosis and its use in in vitro testing of different drugs. Here, we report a repro-ducible protocol for producing a skin fibrosis model using human dermal fibro-blasts seeded in collagen hydrogel. Detailed procedures for the fabrication of cell/hydrogel constructs, fibrosis induction, protein extraction for western blot-ting analysis are presented along with how this model can be employed for inves-tigating the possible anti-fibrotic functions of certain chemical compounds.
