Dysplastic Epithelial Repair Propagates Chronic Pathology Through the Paracrine Transformation of Pulmonary Fibroblasts
2026-04-05
Abstract excerpt
Severe lung injury promotes the ectopic accumulation of basal cells in the alveoli and the presence of these dysplastic epithelial cells are strongly associated with regions of pulmonary fibrosis (PF) in diseased lungs. Recent studies have identified a unique subset of “inflammatory” fibroblasts expressing pro-inflammatory genes, especially cytokines involved in monocyte recruitment, that are also enriched in dise...
