Autophagy in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Autophagy is a basic cellular homeostatic process important to cell fate decisions under conditions of stress. Dysregulation of autophagy impacts numerous human diseases including cancer and chronic obstructive lung disease. This study investigates the role of autophagy in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.Human lung tissues from patients with IPF were ...

Bioprinting‐Assisted Tissue Assembly to Investigate Endothelial Cell Contributions in Cardiac Fibrosis and Focal Fibrosis Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
GA: Bioprinting‐assisted tissue assembly, a method for generating versatile and complex tissue constructs, is employed to investigate the contribution of endothelial cells (ECs) in cardiac fibrosis. ECs modulate fibrotic responses not only by preventing significant tissue stiffening and contractile impairment but also by exhibiting endothelial‐to ...

The role of nailfold capillaroscopy in interstitial lung diseases - Can it differentiate idiopathic cases from collagen tissue disease associated interstitial lung diseases? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Introduction: Nailfold capillaroscopy (NFC) is a non-invasive diagnostic test that is mostly used for early diagnosis of collagen tissue diseases (CTDs). We aimed to evaluate whether NFC findings could be a clue for discriminating idiopathic interstitial

Modified blood cell GAP model as a prognostic biomarker in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesERJ Open Research
Background The Gender, Age and Physiology (GAP) model is a simple mortality prediction tool in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis that uses demographic and physiological variables available at initial evaluation.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: pathogenesis and management

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2018
BackgroundIdiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive disease characterized by the aberrant accumulation of fibrotic tissue in the lungs parenchyma, associated with significant morbidity and poor prognosis.

Supersulfide biology and translational medicine for disease control

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract For decades, the major focus of redox biology has been oxygen, the most abundant element on Earth. Molecular oxygen functions as the final electron acceptor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, contributing to energy production in aerobic organisms. In addition, oxygen‐derived reactive oxygen species including hydrogen peroxide and nitrogen

Single Cell RNA-seq reveals ectopic and aberrant lung resident cell populations in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
We provide a single cell atlas of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), a fatal interstitial lung disease, focusing on resident lung cell populations. By profiling 312,928 cells from 32 IPF, 29 healthy control and 18 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (

Fibroblast Senescence in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Aging is an inevitable and complex natural phenomenon due to the increase in age. Cellular senescence means a non-proliferative but viable cellular physiological state. It is the basis of aging, and it exists in the body at any time point.

Peripheral Biomarker Signatures in Rheumatoid Arthritis–Associated Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis–associated interstitial lung disease (RA‐ILD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with RA, yet effective risk stratification for RA‐ILD is lacking. We sought to characterize unique peripheral blood biomarker signatures in RA that could improve RA‐ILD discrimination beyond clinical and genetic ...
