Abstract:Background
S100A12, S100A8, and S100A9 are considered to be biomarkers of inflammatory diseases; however, their roles in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) remain unclear. In this study, the levels of S100A12, S100A8, and S100A9 in the serum of patients with IPF were analyzed to evaluate the significance of these three factors in the development and prognosis of IPF.
Methods
Differentially expressed genes were screened using the GEO2R tool. Serum S100A12 and S100A8/9 protein levels were assessed using enzym… Show more
