Of note, proteins involved in fibrogenic processes, such as tenascin-c (TNC), insulin-like-growth-factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), fibrillin-1 (FBN1), alpha-2 collagen chain (I) (COL1A2), alpha-1 collagen chain (I) (COL1A1), and lysyl oxidase homolog 1 (LOXL1), were identified in EVs cargo isolated from IPF cell lines. This evidence concerns the gene FBN1 and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
