Bidirectional epithelial-mesenchymal crosstalk provides self-sustaining profibrotic signals in pulmonary fibrosis.
(ELSEVIER, 2021-09-01)
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the prototypic progressive fibrotic lung disease with a median survival of 2 to 4 years. Injury to and/or dysfunction of the alveolar epithelium is strongly implicated in IPF disease ...
Quantitative Proteomic Analysis in Alveolar Type II Cells Reveals the Different Capacities of RAS and TGF-β to Induce Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-03-19)
Alveolar type II (ATII) epithelial cells function as stem cells, contributing to alveolar renewal, repair and cancer. Therefore, they are a highly relevant model for studying a number of lung diseases, including acute ...
