Comment on "Scar‐Degrading Endothelial Cells as a Treatment for Advanced Liver Fibrosis".

In Zhao et al., SP [ sp [1] SP ] sp the authors aimed to select a source of cells with a high degree of collagenase activity to be used as a cellular therapy to degrade liver collagen in an advanced stage hepatic fibrosis model in vivo. Another potential treatment strategy is to deliver therapeutic cells, but this is complicated by the challenge of selecting appropriate cells with the potential to prevent or reverse fibrosis, as well as to deliver these cells effectively and efficiently to the tissue of interest.
