Aberrant intermediate alveolar epithelial cells promote pathogenic activation of lung fibroblasts in preclinical fibrosis models - Nature Communications
The direct contribution of aberrant epithelial cells to lung fibrosis is largely unknown. The authors use murine and human systems to identify how these cells activate fibroblasts, and how reciprocal signals cause them to enter a profibrotic state.
