In this review, we discuss recent evidence arguing in favor of and against proposed origins
of fibrosing cells in diverse models of fibrosis. We highlight outstanding controversies and
propose how future research may elucidate how fibrosing cells arise and what processes
can be targeted in order to treat systemic sclerosis.
