Sustained Amphiregulin Expression in Intermediate Alveolar Stem Cells Drives Progressive Fibrosis

Persistent Expression of Amphiregulin (AREG) in Intermediate Alveolar Stem Cells Drives Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis Background Fibrotic diseases are a leading cause of up to 45% of deaths in developed countries. Pulmonary fibrosis is a disease characterized by alveolar structure damage and impaired gas exchange, with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosi...
