Local apoptosis promotes collagen production by monocyte-derived cells in transforming growth factor β1-induced lung fibrosis

BACKGROUND: Collagen-containing leukocytes (CD45(+)Col-I(+)) accumulate in diseased and fibrotic tissues. However, the precise identity of these cells and whether injury is required for their recruitment remain unknown. Using a murine model of pulmonary fibrosis in which an inducible, bioactive form...
