Abstract |
Collagen stimulating factors, previously described in experimental liver injury and healing skin wounds, have now been found in experimental paraquat lung injury. These factors are active not only in culture but also in vivo. The evidence from this third example of tissue injury points to an important pathological role in chronic inflammation.
