Targeting hypoxia-responsive miR-155-5p and miR-210-3p restores alveolar regeneration and reverses pulmonary fibrosis

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an age-associated degenerative disease largely driven by failure of alveolar epithelial regeneration, yet current therapies slow fibrosis progression without restoring epithelial repair. Building on our previous unbiased microRNA screen in primary murine alveolar type II (ATII) cells, we identified miR-155-5p and miR-210-3p as previously unrecognized…
