In sporadic idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (sIPF) and pulmonary fibrosis caused by a mutation in telomere (TRG-PF) or surfactant related genes (SRG-PF), there are a number of aberrant cellular processes known that can lead to fibrogenesis. We investigated whether RNA expression of genes involved in these processes differed between sIPF, TRG-PF, and SRG-PF and whether expression levels were associated with survival. RNA expression of 28 genes was measured in lung biopsies of 26 sIPF, 17 TRG-PF, and 6 SRG-PF patients.

Background: Interstitial lung disease associated with genetic disorders of the surfactant system is a rare entity in adults that can lead to lung transplantation. Our objective was to describe the outcome of these patients after lung transplantation.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective, multicentre study, on adults who underwent lung transplantation for such disease in the French lung transplant centres network, from 1997 to 2018.

Interstitial lung diseases in children of genetic origin. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) in children (chILD) encompasses a heterogeneous group of rare respiratory disorders, most of which are chronic and severe. In more and more of these cases, a genetic cause has been identified.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a rare disease of the lung with a largely unknown etiology and a poor prognosis. Intriguingly, forms of familial pulmonary fibrosis (FPF) have long been known and linked to specific genetic mutations. There is little evidence of the possible role of genetics in the etiology of sporadic IPF.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common malignancies in males globally, and its pathogenesis is significantly related to androgen. As one of the important treatments for prostate cancer, androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) inhibits tumor proliferation by controlling androgen levels, either surgically or pharmacologically. However, patients treated with ADT inevitably develop biochemical recurrence and advance to castration-resistant prostate cancer which has been reported to be associated with androgen biosynthetic and catabolic pathways.
