Differences in epithelial-mesenchymal-transition in paraquat-induced pulmonary fibrosis in BALB/C and BALB/C (nu/nu) nude mice

Exposure to the toxic herbicide paraquat (PQ) can lead to the active absorption and enrichment of alveolar epithelial cells, resulting in pulmonary fibrosis and respiratory failure. At present, no effective clinical treatment is available. Notably, however, patients infected with human acquired immu...
