Alveolar epithelial cell plasticity and injury memory in human pulmonary fibrosis
2025-06-10
Abstract excerpt
Acute and repetitive lung epithelial injury can lead to irreversible and even progressive pulmonary fibrosis; Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal disease and quintessential example of this phenomenon. The composition of epithelial cells in human pulmonary fibrosis – irrespective of disease etiology – is marked by the presence of Aberrant Basaloid cells: an abnormal cell phenotype with pro-fibrotic and s...
