Interestingly, high levels of CD138+ cells were also identified in the lung tissue of patients with IPF, consistent with the mouse model. Treatment of mice with bortezomib, which depletes PCs, reduced the level of Blm-induced lung fibrosis, implicating PCs as important effector cells in the development and progression of pulmonary fibrosis.]]> Fri 13 Jan 2023 11:00:15 AEDT ]]>
