Identifying TNFSF4low-MSCs superiorly treating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis through Tregs differentiation modulation

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy
Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive lung disorder, presenting clinically with symptoms such as shortness of breath and hypoxemia. Despite its severe prognosis and limited treatment options, the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary ...

Normal Expiratory Flow Rate and Lung Volumes in Patients with Combined Emphysema and Interstitial Lung Disease: A Case Series and Literature Review

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 2011
Pulmonary function tests in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis characteristically show a restrictive pattern including small lung volumes and increased expiratory flow rates resulting from a reduction in pulmonary compliance due to diffuse ...

Target inhibition of galectin-3 by inhaled TD139 in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2020
Galectin (Gal)-3 is a profibrotic β-galactoside-binding lectin that plays a key role in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and IPF exacerbations. TD139 is a novel and potent small-molecule inhibitor of Gal-3.

Inhalable Artificial Polymeric Nucleases Degrading Neutrophil Extracellular Trap‐DNAs and Alleviating Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is promoted by NETs that induce fibroblast activation. PEG‐PIm, a polymeric artificial DNase is reported that efficiently degrades NET‐DNA via phosphodiester bond hydrolysis. Inhalation of PEG‐PIm in a mouse PF model prevents fibroblast activation and fibrosis progression, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for NET ...

Interpretation of HRCT Scans in the Diagnosis of IPF: Improving Communication Between Pulmonologists and Radiologists. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD). In this review, we describe the central role of high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in the diagnosis of IPF and discuss how communication between ...

The pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2010
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive fibrotic lung disease with an appalling prognosis. The failure of anti-inflammatory therapies coupled with the observation that deranged epithelium overlies proliferative myofibroblasts to form the fibroblastic focus has lead to the emerging concept that IPF is a disease of deregulated epithelial ...

Lung‐Penetrating Biomimetic Extracellular Vesicle Spherical Nucleic Acids for Pulmonary Fibrosis Therapy Through ROS Scavenging and Anti‐Inflammatory Effects

open access: yesAggregate, EarlyView.
This work describes a biomimetic extracellular vesicle‐spherical nucleic acid (BEV‐SNA) platform for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) therapy. BEV‐SNA is composed of mechanically extruded BEVs from primary MSCs and cholesterol‐modified ssDNA that are assembled through hydrophobic interactions.
