Integrated long non‐coding RNA analyses identify novel regulators of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in the mouse model of pulmonary fibrosis
29 Jan 2016
Abstract excerpt
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic fatal lung disease characterized by aberrant accumulation of fibroblast population and deposition of extra cellular matrix. Increasing evidence support that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of alveolar epithelial cells is a critical process in the pathogenesis of IPF. Although delivery of bleomycin to induce acute lung injury is the most well-studied animal...
