Senescent alveolar type II epithelial cells-secreted GDF15 promotes silicosis progression via interfering intercellular communication
Background: Silicosis is a chronic fibrotic pulmonary disease caused by consistent inhalation of respirable crystalline-free silica dust. The senescence of alveolar epithelial type II cells (ATII) is considered the initiation of pulmonary fibrosis. As a secreted protein, growth differentiation facto...
