Lung Cancer in Pulmonary Fibrosis: Tales of Epithelial Cell Plasticity [PDF]
Lung epithelial cells exhibit a high degree of plasticity. Alterations to lung epithelial cell function are critically involved in several chronic lung diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis.

Progressive fibrosis in interstitial lung diseases — proposed definition and management
Interstitial lung diseases may have an unpredictably progressive course, which is manifested as progression of pulmonary fibrosis, causing an increasing impairment of lung function affecting a poor prognosis.
