Abstract excerpt

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease characterized by fibroblast expansion, and tissue remodeling. It is considered a multifactorial disease but the possible involved genes are largely unknown. Interestingly, studies regarding the possible role of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are scanty and show contradictory results. In this study, we evaluated the polymorphisms of the MHC, locus...
