TL;DR:
A simple yet robust model that recapitulates physico‐mechanical and cellular aspects of fibrosis mediated via hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and their effects on biliary progenitor cells is developed to benefit pediatric patients that suffer from the biliary dysgenesis associated with a multitude of congenital liver diseases.
