Deep vein thrombosis (VT) can result in vein wall injury, which clinically manifests as post-thrombotic syndrome. Postinjury fibrosis may be modulated in part through cellular cysteine-cysteine receptor 7 (CCR7)-mediated events. We tested the hypothesis that late vein wall fibrotic remodeling is dependent on CCR7.
