Conditional deletion of Nedd4-2 in lung epithelial cells causes progressive pulmonary fibrosis in adult mice

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a devastating disease with poor prognosis. Here, the authors show that deficiency of the E3 ubiqutin-protein ligase Nedd4-2 in airway epithelial cells causes IPF-like disease in adult mice. This model may aid studies of the pathogenesis and therapy of IPF.

Sumario:Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a devastating disease with poor prognosis. Here, the authors show that deficiency of the E3 ubiqutin-protein ligase Nedd4-2 in airway epithelial cells causes IPF-like disease in adult mice. This model may aid studies of the pathogenesis and therapy of IPF.
