Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: a disorder of epithelial cell dysfunction.

The American journal of the medical sciences - 1 Jun 2011

Zoz Donald F, Lawson William E, Blackwell Timothy S

Abstract excerpt

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is characterized by progressive dyspnea, interstitial infiltrates in lung parenchyma and restriction on pulmonary function testing. IPF is the most common and severe of the idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, with most individuals progressing to respiratory failure. Multiple lines of evidence reveal prominent roles for alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) in disease. The current...
