特发性肺纤维化免疫因素研究进展

Progress on immunological factors .in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

特发性肺纤维化（IPF）至今发病机制不明，然而免疫因素的异常近年来逐渐被阐明，认为IPF是一种免疫相关疾病，免疫失衡在肺纤维化发生发展中起着重要作用。对IPF患者免疫因素的研究将有望为临床病情监测、治疗指导、疗效判定等提供思路。

The pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is still unclear. However, more and more researches have gradually indicated that the abnormal immune factors are much related to its pathogenesis and progress. Study profoundly on its immune factors would benefit to disease observation, treatment, and outcome.
