1/n I finally read the Interstitial Pneumonias #AlphabetSoup update. Principally, I have an aversion to guidelines because I worry for wellbeing of those who participate in writing them. But. This one (while not perfect) has substantial ➕ aspects publications.ersnet.org/content/erj/ea…

2/n The ➕ aspects of #AlphabetSoup update: - Well written. - Clearest figure explaining what changed. - Great examples. - DIP is dead, long live AMP!! - Introduction of Primary vs Secondary, hopefully leads to what matters most, UIP yes or not. - addition of alv filling

It's a mess!

According to the basic telomere dogma, mammalian telomeres shorten with age, contributing to aging phenotypes. Here, we show that mouse telomeres do not shorten with age, at least not in blood and tail. academic.oup.com/nar/article/53…

Really cool: "Myeloid-mesenchymal crosstalk drives ARG1-dependent profibrotic metabolism via ornithine in lung fibrosis" - myeloid cells made ornithine ➡️ proline ➡️ collagen in fibroblast. Kudos Drs Yadav, Bhattacharya & team jci.org/articles/view/… Journal of Clinical Investigation #CureIPF
