A Tale of Two Mice: genetics of model mouse strains suggest a transcriptional basis for risk and resistance in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
2024-11-11
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a terminal inflammatory lung disease that causes permanent scarring (fibrogenesis). Bleomycin (BLM) is a drug used to induce fibrosis in mouse models, typically C57BL/6. However, meta-analyses show inter-strain heterogeneity in response, e.g. resistance in BALB/c. This study extends transcriptomic analysis of IPF to a resistant strain,...
