Chemokine receptor 2-targeted molecular imaging in pulmonary fibrosis
2020-03-05
Abstract excerpt
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, inflammatory lung disease that is monitored clinically by measures of lung function, without effective molecular markers of disease activity or therapeutic efficacy. Lung immune cells active in the pro-fibrotic process include inflammatory monocyte and interstitial macrophages that express the C-C motif chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2). CCR2 + monocyte lung influx...
