PARK7 has numerous functions, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, which make it a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of IPF. Our objective is to investigate the relationship between PARK7 and pulmonary fibrosis using biological samples from IPF patients and comprehensive <em>in vitro<\/em> and <em>in vivo<\/em> models.
