P38 MAPK–Driven Epigenetic Regulation Identified as a Key Mechanism in Lung Fibrosis
Aging has long been linked to a range of biological processes, including cellular senescence, epigenetic changes, and chronic tissue remodeling. Yet, these explanations often describe what happens during aging rather than why certain age-related diseases, such as fibrosis, continue to progress over time. In conditions like idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a key question remains: what drives the persistent activation of cells that should normally return to a resting state after injury? Increasing attention has turned to the interaction between cellular signaling pathways and epigenetic…
