Enhanced endogenous bone morphogenetic protein signaling protects against bleomycin induced pulmonary fibrosis

BACKGROUND: Effective treatments for fibrotic diseases such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis are largely lacking. Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) plays a central role in the pathophysiology of fibrosis. We hypothesized that bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP), another family within the TGFβ sup...
