Integrated Molecular Pathogenesis of Pulmonary Fibrosis

Abstract

Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a heterogeneous clinical syndrome that represents the end-stage of chronic interstitial lung diseases. Dozens of different occupational, environmental, immune and genetic risk factors have been associated with PF, and through the past several decades, risk factor exposures have been the driving force in the diagnostic classification of PF, thus in the current paradigm, there are dozens of different oediagnoses of pulmonary fibrosis.
