Fibrotic human lung extracellular matrix as a disease-specific substrate for 3D <i>in-vitro</i> models of pulmonary fibrosis

2019-11-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an irreversible and uniformly fatal lung disease marked by destruction and scarring of the lung parenchyma and progressive loss of respiratory function. IPF affects nearly 3 million people worldwide, and annual mortality in the US alone exceeds 40,000.
