STAT3 Regulates the Onset of Oxidant-induced Senescence in Lung Fibroblasts
4 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic lung disease of unknown cause with a median survival of only 3 years. Other investigators and we have shown that fibroblasts derived from IPF lungs display characteristics of senescent cells, and that dysregulated activation of the transcription factor signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) correlates with IPF progression. The question...
