Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, and high-lethality fibrotic lung
disease characterized by excessive fibroblast proliferation, extracellular matrix …

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive interstitial fibrotic lung disease with an
undefined etiology and no effective treatments. By binding to cell surface receptors …

To identify microRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) with potential roles in lung fibrogenesis, we
performed genome-wide profiling of miRNA expression in lung tissues from a silica-induced …

Abstract Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, and highly lethal
fibrotic lung disease with poor treatment and unknown etiology. Emerging evidence …

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal disorder resulting from the progressive
remodeling of lungs, with no known effective treatment. Although transforming growth factor …

Background MicroRNAs are a group of small RNAs that regulate gene expression at the
posttranscriptional level. They regulate almost every aspect of cellular processes. In this …

Aberrant proliferation and activation of lung fibroblasts contribute to the initiation and
progression of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). However, the mechanisms responsible for …

Although microRNAs (miRs) have been well recognized to play an important role in the
pathogenesis of organ fibrosis, there is a lack of evidence as to whether miRs directly …

In this review, we describe the recent advances in the understanding of the role of
microRNAs in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a chronic progressive and lethal fibrotic …

Loss of microRNA-29 (miR-29) is known to be a mechanism of transforming growth factor-β
(TGF-β)-mediated pulmonary fibrosis, but the therapeutic implication of miR-29 for …
