Collagen 3D matrices as a model for the study of cell behavior in pulmonary fibrosis
16 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a complex progressive chronic lung disease where epithelial to mesenchymal interaction, extracellular matrix (ECM) contact, and pro-fibrotic cytokines dynamics take part in the development of the disease. The study of IPF in the widespread in vitro two-dimensional (2 D) culture fails to explain the interaction of cells with the changing environment that occurs in...
