Exosomes are 50‐ to 150‐nm‐diameter extracellular vesicles secreted by all mammalian
cells except mature red blood cells and contribute to diverse physiological and pathological …

The WNT signaling pathways are major regulators of organ development. Ample research
over the past few decades revealed that these pathways are critically involved in adult tissue …

Rationale: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a lethal lung disease characterized by lung
epithelial cell injury, increased (myo)fibroblast activation, and extracellular matrix deposition. …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are key regulators of cell homeostasis, and their cytoprotective
role has been largely investigated in the last few decades. However, an increasing amount of …

Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a devastating disease characterised by
myofibroblast proliferation and abnormal extracellular matrix accumulation in the lungs. …

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic and fatal lung disease. A maladaptive
epithelium due to chronic injury is a prominent feature and contributor to pathogenic cellular …

Introduction: Chronic fibrotic disorders are challenging clinical problems. The major challenge
is the identification of specific targets expressed selectively in fibrotic tissues. Collagen …

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis ( IPF ) is a devastating disease characterized by the proliferation
of myofibroblasts and the accumulation of extracellular matrix ( ECM ) in the lungs. TGF‐…

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal lung disease with limited therapeutic options and
unknown etiology. IPF is characterized by epithelial cell injury, impaired cellular crosstalk …

Lipids are major actors and regulators of physiological processes within the lung. Initial
research has described their critical role in tissue homeostasis and in orchestrating cellular …
