From organ to cell: Multi-level telomere length assessment in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

RATIONALE:A subset of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) contains short leukocyte telomeres or telomere related mutations. We previously showed that alveolar type 2 cells have short telomeres in fibrotic lesions. Our objectives were to better understand how telomere shortening associa...
