Type VI collagen is proportionally lower around airways and blood vessels in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

2026-01-14

Abstract excerpt

Type VI collagen (COL6) is a key extracellular matrix protein that supports matrix organization and cell-matrix interactions, yet its regulation in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) remains poorly understood. Here, we characterize COL6 gene expression, spatial localization, remodeling, and functional effects of COL6-derived fragments. Analysis of publicly available single-cell RNA sequencing data from 30 control...
