Abstract
Fibroblasts, which originate from embryonic mesenchymal cells, are the predominant cell type seen in loose connective tissue. As the main components of the internal environment that cells depend on for survival, fibroblasts play an essential role in tissue development, wound healing, and the maintenance of tissue homeostasis. Furthermore, fibroblasts are also involved in several pathological processes, such as fibrosis, cancers, and some inflammatory diseases. In this review, we analyze the latest research progress on fibroblasts, summarize the biological characteristics and physiological functions of fibroblasts, and delve into the role of fibroblasts in disease pathogenesis and explore treatment approaches for fibroblast-related diseases.

期刊介绍：
Biomolecules (ISSN 2218-273X) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal focusing on biogenic substances and their biological functions, structures, interactions with other molecules, and their microenvironment as well as biological systems. Biomolecules publishes reviews, regular research papers and short communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.
