This study shows that a bleomycin-induced lung injury model in ferrets shares key pathophysiological, cellular, and molecular features with human idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, suggesting its use for IPF research.

The paper integrates cross-species single-cell data from rodent PH models and human disease to identify overlapping cell subsets and novel macrophage and endothelial subtypes involved in PH.
