Genetic variant in <i>SPDL1</i> reveals novel mechanism linking pulmonary fibrosis risk and cancer protection

2021-05-10

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a rare disease with poor prognosis. By contrast, cancer is common in any elderly population and a leading killer, but is now often curable. Of note, whereas IPF is driven by cellular senescence, cancer is characterized by uncontrolled cell division.
