Tissue-resident alveolar and interstitial macrophages and recruited macrophages are critical
players in innate immunity and maintenance of lung homeostasis. Until recently, assessing …

Macrophages are innate immune cells that form a 3D network in all our tissues, where they
phagocytose dying cells and cell debris, immune complexes, bacteria and other waste …

The pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) involves a complex interplay of cell
types and signaling pathways. Recurrent alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) injury may occur in …
