Popis: Abdominal adhesions are a common cause of bowel obstruction, but knowledge regarding adhesion biology and anti-adhesion therapies remains limited. Here the authors report a systematic analysis of mouse and human adhesion tissues demonstrating that visceral fibroblast JUN and associated PDGFRA expression promote adhesions, and JUN suppression can prevent adhesion formation.
