In stable IPF, PGRN levels did not differ from healthy controls; however, serum PGRN levels were significantly higher in non-IPF ILD patients compared to healthy subjects and IPF (53.47 ± 15.38 vs. 40.99 ± 5.33 vs. 44.66 ± 7.77 ng/mL respectively; p < 0.01). The gene discussed is GRN; the disease is interstitial lung disease.
