Extracellular CIRP Induces an Inflammatory Phenotype in Pulmonary Fibroblasts via TLR4
Extracellular cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (eCIRP), a new damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP), has been recently shown to play a critical role in promoting the development of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Although fibroblast activation is a critical component of the fibrotic pro...
