Dexamethasone induces senescence of lung epithelial cells and augments TGF-β1-mediated production of the fibrosis mediator serpin E1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor-1)

2021-11-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, incurable scarring disease of the lungs with a prognosis worse than most cancers. Pathologically, IPF is characterised by upregulation of the pro-fibrotic cytokine transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), activation of fibroblasts, and deposition of collagen in the alveolar interstitium. Recent evidence has highlighted the role of senescent...
