IPF May Have a Specific Gene Signature, Aiding Potential New Therapies, Analysis Finds
Researchers have identified 39 genes as critical to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), based on a computational analysis of large genomic studies. Their study, “Detecting the Molecular System Signatures of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis through Integrated Genomic Analysis,” appeared in the journal Scientific Reports. IPF patients do not respond to anti-inflammatory therapies such…
