Regulation of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase in Pulmonary Myofibroblasts

Regulation of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase in Pulmonary Myofibroblasts

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an interstitial lung disease leading to decreased lung volume and eventual respiratory failure. At present, the median post-diagnosis lifespan is between three and six years. Myofibroblasts are collagen-secreting cells essential for wound healing, but also impl...
