The nature of soluble factors that regulate fibroblast proliferation have not been finally characterized. Our aim was to study the role of tumour necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1 (IL-1) in the suppressive activity of alveolar macrophages on autologous lung fibroblasts proliferation in sar...
