Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and fibrotic nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis are progressive interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) with limited treatment options and poor survival. However, the rate of disease progression is variable, implying t... Read More about αvβ6 integrin may be a potential prognostic biomarker in interstitial lung disease.
