VIM and pancreatitis: According to our analysis, Vimentin is expressed in a broader range within DAFs of pancreatitis/pre-disease tissues (3–14%, +/−SEM 0.8%, p = −0.4918) compared to CAFs (4–12%, +/−SEM 2.2%) suggesting that Vimentin is more specific for fibroblasts in a reversible activated state before becoming a CAF.
