  1. Update on Advances in the Pathophysiology and Pathogenesis of IPF

  2. Objective • Discuss the most recent developments in understanding the pathophysiology and pathogenesis of IPF

  3. ATS/ERS Definition of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis • A type of chronic fibrosing interstitial pneumonia • Unknown etiology limited to the lungs • Associated with a histologic pattern of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) ATS/ERS. Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2002;165:277-304.

Prevalence, Incidence, and Economic Costs of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. Paper presented at: CHEST 2002, November 2-7, 2002; San Diego, CA.

  5. Elucidation of the Natural History and Pathogenesis of IPF • Allows investigation of potentially different mechanisms operative at early, intermediate, and end-stages • Facilitates implementation of targeted therapeutic intervention at specific stages of disease

  6. ATS/ERS Classification of Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonias ATS/ERS. Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2002;165:277-304. Nicholson AG. Thorax. 2004;59:500-505.

Histopathological Patterns of IIPs LUNG INJURY AgeGenetic factorsEnvironmental factorsNature of injury – Etiologic agent – Recurrent vs single – Endothelial vs epithelial Histopathologic Pattern DIP RB-ILD LIP COP NSIP AIP UIP Inflammation Fibrosis Thannickal VJ, et al. Annu Rev Med. 2004;55:395-417.

  8. Progression of IPF:Acute Exacerbation vs Slow Decline Traditional View of UIP/IPF Progression Respiratory Function/Symptoms 50% FVC 1 2 3 4 Years FVC = forced vital capacity

  9. Progression of IPF:Acute Exacerbation vs Slow Decline Step Theory of UIP/IPF Progression Respiratory Function/Symptoms FVC 50% Acute exacerbation =hits 1 2 3 4 0 Years Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol. 2003;29(3 suppl):S1-S105.

  10. UIP is the Histologic Hallmark of IPF • Diagnostic criteria of UIP: clear evidence of temporally heterogeneous areas of normal lung, active fibrosis, and end-stage honeycomb fibrosis • All areas of the lung are not involved ATS/ERS. Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2000;161:646-664.

  11. Multiple Hypotheses for the Pathogenesis of IPF • Inflammation causes fibrosis • Noninflammatory (multiple hit) hypothesis: fibrosis results from epithelial injury and abnormal wound healing in the absence of chronic inflammation • Vascular remodeling: aberrant vascular remodeling supports fibrosis, and may contribute to increased shunt and hypoxemia Noble PW, Homer RJ. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25:749-758, vii. Raghu G, Chang J. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25: 621-636, v. Strieter R. Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol. 2003;29(3 suppl):S67-S69.

  12. Inflammatory Hypothesis • Inflammation causes fibrosis • Inflammatory concept was dominant in the 1970s and 1980s • IPF resulted from unremitting inflammatory response to injury culminating in progressive fibrosis • Role of inflammation remains controversial • Lack of efficacy of corticosteroids Injury Inflammation Fibrosis Noble PW, Homer RJ. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25:749-758, vii. Raghu G, Chang J. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25:621-636, v.

  15. Noninflammatory (multiple hit) Hypothesis • Fibrosis results from epithelial/endothelial injury and abnormal wound healing in the absence of chronic inflammation • Recurrent, unknown injury to distal pulmonary parenchyma causes repeated epithelial cell injury and apoptosis • Loss of alveolar epithelium exposes basement membrane to oxidative injury and degradation • Failure of re-epithelialization/re-endothelialization provides stimulus for persistent profibrotic growth factor production, persistent fibroblast proliferation, excessive deposition of ECM, and progressive fibrosis Noble PW, Homer RJ. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25:749-758, vii. Raghu G, Chang J. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25:621-636, v. Selman M, et al. Drugs. 2004;64:405-430.

  16. Noninflammatory (multiple hit) Hypothesis Recurrent pulmonary injury Epithelial/ endothelial injury and apoptosis TGF-b = transforming growth factor-beta PDGF = platelet derived growth factor IGF-1 = insulin-like growth factor-1 Loss of basement membrane Failure of re-epithelialization/ re-endothelialization Release of profibrotic growth factors (TGF-b, PDGF, IGF-1) Fibroblast proliferation ECM deposition Progressive fibrosis with loss of lung architecture Noble PW, Homer RJ. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25:749-758, vii. Raghu G, Chang J. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25:621-636, v. Selman M, et al. Drugs. 2004;64:405-430.

  17. Vascular Remodeling Hypothesis • Aberrant vascular remodeling supports fibrosis and may contribute to increased shunt and hypoxemia • Increased angiogenesis results from imbalance of pro-angiogenic chemokines (IL-8, ENA-78) and anti-angiogenic, IFN-inducible chemokines (IP-10) • Vascular remodeling leads to anastomoses between the systemic/pulmonary microvasculature, increasing right-to-left shunt, contributing to hypoxemia Fibrosis Chemokine imbalance Increased angiogenesis Aberrant vascular remodeling Noble PW, Homer RJ. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25:749-758, vii. Strieter RM, et al. Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol. 2003;29(3 suppl):S67-S69.

  18. Defects in Host Defense Mechanisms May Contribute to Fibrosis • Defects in endogenous host defense mechanisms (eg, IFN-g, PGE2 production) that limit fibrosis after acute lung injury may contribute to progressive fibrosis Noble PW, Homer RJ. Clin Chest Med. 2004;25:749-758, vii.

  19. Epithelial Restoration Mitogens Stem cell progenitors Fibroproliferation Aberrant Vascular Remodeling Growth factors inhibitors Angiostatic molecules Chemokine antagonists Potential Therapeutic Targets Inflammation Anti-oxidants Cytokines Host Defense Interferon-gamma Prostaglandin-E2 Noble PW, Homer RJ.
