The JCI Insight Editors are pleased to announce that we are accepting submissions to be considered for inclusion in a special issue on fibrosis.
Fibrosis occurs in almost every organ system of the body, with dire consequences for organ function. Given the broad targets for fibrotic disease, it is essential to understand both common and specific mechanisms that underlie fibrosis onset, progression, and resolution to aid in the development of novel therapeutic approaches. We welcome submissions of papers on all aspects of fibrosis, including, but not limited to, solid-organ fibrosis, wound healing, shared and distinct fibrotic mechanisms, application of omics approaches, potential therapeutics, biomarkers, and models.
Submission deadline: October 31, 2025
Scientific editors: Gavin E. Arteel and Melanie Königshoff
Submission categories: Research, Clinical Research and Public Health, Resource and Technical Advance, and Research Letter.
