Proteome Analysis of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid in Chronic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Proteome Analysis of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid in Chronic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Background: Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an immune-mediated lung disease induced by inhalation of numerous antigens. Pathologically, chronic HP tends to show usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and fibrotic nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (fNSIP) patterns. Patients with UIP pattern present...
