Identification of core genes in the extracellular matrix and the regulatory mechanisms of the immune microenvironment in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis using WGCNA and machine learning methods
Introduction: Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive lung disease characterized by the excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) and significant alterations in the immune microenvironment. This research, conducted by Man Wang, Lu Liu, Yang Liu, and Shihuan Yu, aimed to identify core genes associated with the ECM in IPF and explore their relationship…
