COVID‐19 and pulmonary fibrosis: A potential role for lung epithelial cells and fibroblasts
Immunological Reviews, 2021 The COVID‐19 pandemic rapidly spread around the world following the first reports in Wuhan City, China in late 2019. The disease, caused by the novel SARS‐CoV‐2 virus, is primarily a respiratory condition that can affect numerous other bodily systems ...

Role of interleukins in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis
Cell Death Discovery, 2021 Interleukins, a group of cytokines participating in inflammation and immune response, are proved to be involved in the formation and development of pulmonary fibrosis.

Tracking dyspnea up to supplemental oxygen prescription among patients with pulmonary fibrosis
BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2017 Background Dyspnea is the hallmark symptom of pulmonary fibrosis. Supplemental oxygen (O2) is prescribed to many patients with pulmonary fibrosis in hopes of alleviating dyspnea and improving physical functioning.

Tuftelin1 drives experimental pulmonary fibrosis progression by facilitating stress fiber assembly
Respiratory Research, 2023 Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive interstitial lung disease (ILD) with unknown etiology, characterized by sustained damage repair of epithelial cells and abnormal activation of fibroblasts, the underlying mechanism of the ...

Senescence of Alveolar Type 2 Cells Drives Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis.
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2020 RATIONALE Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an insidious and fatal interstitial lung disease associated with declining pulmonary function. Accelerated aging, loss of epithelial progenitor cell function and/or numbers and cellular senescence are ...

Alveolar cells under mechanical stressed niche: critical contributors to pulmonary fibrosis
Molecular Medicine, 2020 Pulmonary fibrosis arises from the repeated epithelial mild injuries and insufficient repair lead to over activation of fibroblasts and excessive deposition of extracellular matrix, which result in a mechanical stretched niche.

Inhalation of lung spheroid cell secretome and exosomes promotes lung repair in pulmonary fibrosis
Nature Communications, 2020 Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal and incurable form of interstitial lung disease in which persistent injury results in scar tissue formation.

Obstructive sleep apnea and nocturnal hypoxemia in adult patients with cystic fibrosis
BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022 Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), nocturnal hypoxemia and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) are common comorbidities in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). Most of the data showing this originates from children and adolescents.

Virus infection induced pulmonary fibrosis
Journal of Translational Medicine, 2021 Pulmonary fibrosis is the end stage of a broad range of heterogeneous interstitial lung diseases and more than 200 factors contribute to it. In recent years, the relationship between virus infection and pulmonary fibrosis is getting more and more ...
