Cellular profiling identifies an early profibrotic alveolar type 2 cell signature in lung fibrosis
2025-05-23
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Rationale</h4> Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, age-associated, lung disease characterized by short telomeres in alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells, epithelial remodeling, and fibrosis. <h4>Objectives</h4> This study investigated how telomere dysfunction in AT2 cells lacking Telomere Repeat Binding Factor 1 (TRF1) drives lung remodeling in SPC-creTRF1 flox/flox mice and its relevance to IPF....
