Evolving Concepts of Apoptosis in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Open accessAbstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, relentlessly progressive fibrosing disease of the lung of unknown etiology. Significant progress has been made in recent years in elucidating key aspects of the pathobiology of IPF. Insights into disease pathogenesis have come from studies of cell biology, growth factor/cytokine signaling, animal models of pulmonary fibrosis, and human IPF cells and tissue. A consistent finding in the ultrastructural pathology of IPF is alveolar epithelial cell injury and apoptosis. Another consistent finding in the histopathology of human IPF, described as usual interstitial pneumonia, is the accumulation of aggregates of myofibroblasts in fibroblastic foci. The extent or profusion of fibroblastic foci in lung biopsies is strongly correlated with increased mortality in patients with IPF. There is emerging evidence that myofibroblasts in IPF/usual interstitial pneumonia, both in the in vivo microenvironment and during the process of differentiation in vitro, acquire resistance to apoptosis. Here, we review the current evidence and mechanisms for this apparent “apoptosis paradox” in the pathogenesis of IPF.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
