Increased Lysosomal Membrane Permeabilization in Oxidant-exposed Macrophages of Human Fibrotic Lungs

A disrupted balance of reduced glutathione (GSH) and iron (Fe) and subsequent enhanced susceptibility of lysosomes of lung macrophages (LMs) to oxidants may play a role in lung fibrogenesis. We assessed cellular Fe/GSH, lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP), and cell death in cultures of oxidant...
