The role of the receptor for advanced glycation end-products in a murine model of silicosis.

The role of the receptor for advanced glycation end-products in a murine model of silicosis.

The role of the receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) has been shown to differ in two different mouse models of asbestos and bleomycin induced pulmonary fibrosis.
