Redox mechanisms in age-related lung fibrosis

Redox mechanisms in age-related lung fibrosis

Redox signaling and oxidative stress are associated with tissue fibrosis and aging. Aging is recognized as a major risk factor for fibrotic diseases involving multiple organ systems, including that of the lung. A number of oxidant generating enzymes are upregulated while antioxidant defenses are def...
