The paper shows that inhibiting apoptosis of alveolar myofibroblasts (AMFs) reprograms them into ductal myofibroblasts (DMFs) in a mouse model, suggesting fate plasticity in lung mesenchymal cells.

This study shows that loss of Cryptochrome 1 and 2 leads to COPD-like lung disease through disrupted epithelial proliferation and immune homeostasis, and that Nobiletin can alleviate these effects.
