ABSTRACT Support is requested for a Keystone Symposia conference entitled Fibrosis Pathogenesis and Resolution: From Mechanisms to Therapies, organized by Drs. David Lagares, Boris Hinz and Carine Boustany. The conference will be held in Banff, Alberta, Canada from March 19 - 23, 2023. Human fibrotic diseases are characterized by progressive tissue scarring in response to overwhelming or chronic injury, ultimately leading to organ failure and death. Fibrotic diseases cause healthcare costs reaching $10 billion per year. These costs are expected to further increase with our aging populations, our increasing capacity to diagnose fibrotic disorders and the emergence of novel infectious agents such as SARS-CoV-2, which can promote the development of fibrosis. Therefore, this conference was designed to identify common and distinct mechanisms driving fibrosis in response to different insults (e.g., viral infection, trauma, oncogenic injury). This conference will also address the following emerging themes in the field: 1) the mechanisms which amplify and perpetuate tissue fibrosis, such as aging, epigenetics, and mechanobiology, 2) the relevance of fibroblast heterogeneity in tissue repair and fibrosis, and 3) understanding the mechanisms promoting fibrosis resolution and regeneration to devise novel strategies to truly regenerate fibrotic organs. This forum will also focus on major clinical challenges including the lack of robust fibrosis biomarkers, safety endpoints, and clinical trial endpoints. Advances in these areas will break down barriers in translating anti-fibrotic therapies from bench to bedside. This Keystone Symposia conference will accelerate fibrosis research and anti-fibrotic drug discovery by fostering interdisciplinary interactions among a diverse group of physicians and scientists from both academic institutions and the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. Finally, this conference will be held jointly with Metabolic and Molecular Mechanisms of NAFLD/NASH. The joint conference will highlight current evidence linking key biological processes involved in NASH and liver fibrosis. Participants from both conferences will have the opportunity to network through shared sessions, mealtimes, and evening poster sessions.

抽象的 请求支持Keystone研讨会会议，标题为“纤维化发病机理和分辨率： 从机制到疗法，由Drs组织。大卫·拉加雷斯（David Lagares），鲍里斯·欣兹（Boris Hinz）和卡琳·博斯塔尼（Carine Boustany）。这 会议将于2023年3月19日至23日在加拿大艾伯塔省的班夫举行。 人类纤维化疾病的特征是响应压倒性或 慢性伤害，最终导致器官衰竭和死亡。纤维化疾病导致医疗保健费用达到 每年100亿美元。期望这些成本随着我们的老龄化而进一步增加 诊断纤维化疾病的能力以及新型感染剂（例如SARS-COV-2）的出现 可以促进纤维化的发展。因此，该会议旨在确定常见 以及驱动纤维化的不同机制，以响应不同的损伤（例如病毒感染，创伤，致癌性） 受伤）。该会议还将解决该领域中以下新兴主题：1）机制 扩增和永久性组织纤维化，例如衰老，表观遗传学和机械生物学，2） 组织修复和纤维化中的成纤维细胞异质性，以及3）了解促进纤维化的机制 解决和再生，以设计新型策略来真正再生纤维化器官。这个论坛也将 专注于主要的临床挑战，包括缺乏可靠的纤维化生物标志物，安全终点和临床 试验终点。这些领域的进步将打破障碍物在翻译抗纤维化疗法方面 长凳到床边。这次Keystone研讨会会议将加速纤维化研究和抗纤维化药物 通过在各种各样的医师和科学家之间培养跨学科互动来发现 学术机构以及制药和生物技术行业。最后，这次会议将举行 与NAFLD/NASH的代谢和分子机制联合。联合会议将突出显示当前 与NASH和肝纤维化有关的关键生物过程联系的证据。两者的参与者 会议将有机会通过共享的会议，进餐时间和晚间海报进行联网 会议。
