Popis: | Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive lung disease characterized by fibroproliferative matrix molecule accumulation, collagen deposition, and apoptosis. Activated leukocyte cell-adhesion molecule (ALCAM; CD166) is a cell-adhesion molecule that has been implicated in adhesive and migratory attribution, including leukocyte homing and trafficking and cancer metastasis. We investigated the role of ALCAM on pulmonary fibrosis development in murine models. Thus, a bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis model was established with wild-type and ALCAM |
