Abstract
En 中文
Pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive and often fatal lung disorder whose clinical behavior is not fully explained by conventional injury-driven models. Fibrosis frequently progresses after the initiating insult has resolved, anti-inflammatory therapies have shown limited benefit in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and current antifibrotic drugs slow but rarely reverse disease progression. Moreover, diverse conditions including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, post-ARDS or post-infectious fibrosis, radiation-induced injury, drug toxicity, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia arise from distinct causes yet may converge toward shared features of persistent fibrotic remodeling.
