Effect of Hypoxia in the Transcriptomic Profile of Lung Fibroblasts from Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
27 Sept 2022
Abstract excerpt
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an aging-associated disease characterized by exacerbated extracellular matrix deposition that disrupts oxygen exchange. Hypoxia and its transcription factors (HIF-1α and 2α) influence numerous circuits that could perpetuate fibrosis by increasing myofibroblasts differentiation and by promoting extracellular matrix accumulation. Therefore, this work aimed to elucidate the...
