Peripheral immune checkpoint gene expression as diagnostic biomarkers in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Background and aim: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a relatively rare and progressive fibrotic interstitial lung disease with limited annual incidence and poor prognosis. Increasing evidence suggests that immune dysregulation, including altered immune checkpoint and innate regulatory signaling pathways, may cont...
