Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), fibrotic non-specific interstitial pneumonia (f-NSIP), and pulmonary parenchymal fibro-elastosis (PPFE) are notorious progressive diseases of pulmonary fibrosis, because of their high intractability. To find out and construct effective treatment strategy against these progressive fibrosis of the lung, we measured and analyzed the circulating miRNA of the patients before and after treatment with medication by anti-pulmonary fibrosis, Nintedanib, Pirfenidone, Tacrolimus, and/or Steroids. These results were compared with our previous results of alteration of circulating miRNAs in the animal models, bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis.
