Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a steadily progressive and ultimately fatal disease of unknown origin. Recent years have seen advances in our understanding of IPF and a number of guidelines have been published. But many questions remain unanswered, particularly surrounding probable versus definite IPF.

Pathobiology of pulmonary fibrosis
American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, 1990Pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by an increase in lung matrix and alterations in the numbers and spatial relationships of lung parenchymal cells. The increase in matrix results from a proliferation and “activation” of fibroblasts (FB) with increased production and deposition of matrix macromolecules at sites of lung injury.

Autophagy and Pulmonary Fibrosis
2020Pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive chronic inflammatory disease with a poor clinical outcome. Although pirfenidone and nintedanib have been approved by FDA to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), these drugs can only slow the progression of IPF. Autophagy plays an important role in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis.

Macrophages and Pulmonary Fibrosis
Current Molecular MedicineMost chronic respiratory diseases often lead to the clinical manifestation of pulmonary fibrosis. Inflammation and immune disorders are widely recognized as primary contributors to the onset of pulmonary fibrosis. Given that macrophages are predominantly responsible for inflammation and immune disorders, in this review, we first focused on the role ...

SUMMARY Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a precise syndrome defined by clinical, roentgenographic, physiologic, and histopathologic features. Clinically, most patients have a nonproductive cough and dyspnea on exertion. The most common physical finding is the presence of crackles over the lower portions of both lungs; also, there may be clubbing ...
