[Research advances on the role of aerobic glycolysis in skin fibrosis diseases].

Abstract

Skin fibrosis diseases mainly include hypertrophic scar, keloid, and systemic sclerosis, etc. The main pathological features are excessive activation of fibroblasts and abnormal deposition of extracellular matrix. In recent years, studies have shown that aerobic glycolysis is closely related to the occurrence and development of skin fibrosis diseases. Drugs targeting aerobic glycolysis has provided new ideas for skin anti-fibrosis treatment. This article reviews the role of enzymes and products related to aerobic glycolysis in the occurrence and development of skin fibrosis diseases and the drugs targeting aerobic glycolysis for the treatment of skin fibrosis diseases.
