肺部炎症及纤维化的基础与临床研究

   矽肺是由于长期吸入游离二氧化硅（SiO2）粉尘所引起的以肺组织持续慢性炎症、进行性肺纤维化为主，并伴有全身系统性炎症为特征的全身性疾病。矽肺一旦发生，肺损伤呈进行性发展，即使停止粉尘暴露，肺部病变依然进展，导致肺功能障碍，呼吸衰竭，甚至死亡。由于对矽肺的发病机制知之甚少，临床主要面临两个问题：（1）早期缺少筛检诊断方法，当经胸片确诊时，肺损伤已无逆转可能；（2）后期肺纤维化缺乏特效治疗措施，这是由于目前缺少肺纤维化进程评价指标，临床也无明确治疗靶标，因此发现矽肺早期诊断分子标志物以及干预肺纤维化进程的靶标已成为迫切需要解决的问题。

       本课题组着重于研究粉尘吸入引起肺部细胞激活，释放的细胞因子和化学趋化因子，参与炎症反应和肺纤维化的过程及其机制，进而为现有矽肺诊断和治疗提供新的理论依据，对临床治疗策略的选择和治疗药物靶标的遴选提供指导。
