The cardiac fibroblast has essential roles in production and maintenance of extracellular matrix. While its role in maladaptive myocardial remodeling has been a focus of many studies, the cardiac fibroblast has become a topic of great interest as a contributor to heart physiology and as a therapeutic target. Recent reports are changing how we view and study the cardiac fibroblast by providing greater insights into fibroblast biology using refined techniques for fibroblast identification and manipulation. Here, we briefly summarize some of these fundamental recent findings.
