Loss of epithelial Gq and G11 signaling inhibits TGFβ production but promotes IL-33–mediated macrophage polarization and emphysema (2016)
Journal Article

Heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide–binding protein (G protein) signaling is a ubiquitous signaling system that links hundreds of G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) with four G protein signaling pathways. Two of these pathways, one mediated by Gq and... Read More about Loss of epithelial Gq and G11 signaling inhibits TGFβ production but promotes IL-33–mediated macrophage polarization and emphysema.

Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor gene deletion alters bleomycin-induced lung injury, but not development of pulmonary fibrosis (2016)
Journal Article

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive, fatal disease with limited treatment options. Protease-mediated transforming growth factor-? (TGF-?) activation has been proposed as a pathogenic mechanism of lung fibrosis. Protease activity in the lun...

Caffeine inhibits TGF? activation in epithelial cells, interrupts fibroblast responses to TGF?, and reduces established fibrosis in ex vivo precision-cut lung slices (2016)
Journal Article

Caffeine is a commonly used food additive found naturally in many products. In addition to potently stimulating the central nervous system caffeine is able to affect various systems within the body including the cardiovascular and respiratory systems...

Reduced Ets domain-containing protein Elk1 promotes pulmonary fibrosis via increased integrin ?v?6 expression (2016)
Journal Article

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive fibrotic lung disease with high mortality. Active TGF?1 is considered central to the pathogenesis of IPF. A major mechanism of TGF?1 activation in the lung involves the epithelially restricted ?v?6...
