The lack of changes in Cxcl13, Ccl11, Ccl19, Xcl1, and Cxcl5 mRNA levels may be due to differences in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis and IPF, although models of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis are the most common experimental models for investigating IPF. Here, XCL1 is linked to pulmonary fibrosis.
