Innovative approaches to the therapy of fibrosis.

Current opinion in rheumatology - 1 Nov 2009

de Andrade Joao A, Thannickal Victor J

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The lung in systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) is susceptible to fibrosis and the ensuing respiratory insufficiency contributes to significant morbidity and mortality in this disease. The lack of effective therapies for pulmonary fibrosis has spurred a re-evaluation of pathobiological paradigms and therapeutic strategies in scleroderma-associated interstitial lung disease and in idiopathic...
