Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a globally prevalent, progressive disease with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. Because of its irreversible disease progression, IPF affects the quality and length of life of patients and imposes a significant burden on their families and social healthcare services. The use of the antifibrotic drugs pirfenidone and nintedanib can slow the progression of the disease to some extent, but it does not have a reverse effect on the prognosis. The option of lung transplantion is also limited owing to contraindications to transplantation, possible complications after transplantation, and the risk of death. Therefore, the discovery of new, effective treatment methods is an urgent need. Over recent years, various studies have been undertaken to investigate the relationship between interstitial pneumonia and lung cancer, suggesting that some immune checkpoints in IPF are similar to those in tumors. Immune checkpoints are a class of immunosuppressive molecules that are essential for maintaining autoimmune tolerance and regulating the duration and magnitude of immune responses in peripheral tissues. They can prevent normal tissues from being damaged and destroyed by the immune response. While current studies have focused on PD-1/PD-L1 and CTLA-4, PD-1/PD-L1 may be the only effective immune checkpoint IPF treatment. This review discusses the application of PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint in IPF, with the aim of finding a new direction for IPF treatment.

Pulm Pharmacol Ther 2023; 80:102202.

Abstract
Pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic interstitial fibrosis lung disease with high mortality, which is often complicated with lung cancer. The incidence of IPF complicated with lung cancer is getting higher and higher. At present, there is no consensus on the management and treatment of pulmonary fibrosis patients with lung cancer. There is an urgent need to develop preclinical drug evaluation methods for IPF with lung cancer and potential therapeutic drugs for IPF with lung cancer. The pathogenic mechanism of IPF is similar to that of lung cancer, and the multi-effect drugs with anticancer and anti-fibrosis will have potential value in the treatment of IPF complicated with lung cancer. In this study, we established an animal model of IPF complicated with lung cancer in situ to evaluate the therapeutic effect of the antiangiogenic drug anlotinib. The pharmacodynamic results in vivo showed that anlotinib could significantly improve the lung function of IPF-LC mice, reduce the content of collagen in lung tissue, increase the survival rate of mice, and inhibit the growth of lung tumor in mice. The results of Western blot and immunohistochemical analysis of lung tissue showed that anlotinib significantly inhibited the expression of fibrosis marker protein α-SMA, Collagen I and Fibronectin and tumor proliferation marker protein PCNA in mouse lung tissue, and down-regulated the content of serum tumor marker CEA. Through transcriptome analysis, we found that anlotinib regulates MAPK signal pathway, PARP signal pathway and coagulation cascade signal pathway in lung cancer and pulmonary fibrosis, which all play an important role in lung cancer and pulmonary fibrosis. In addition, there is crosstalk between the signal pathway participated by the target of anlotinib and MAPK, JAK/STAT and mTOR signal pathway. In summary, anlotinib will be a candidate for IPF-LC treatment.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common type of interstitial lung disease (ILD) characterized by a histopathological pattern of usual interstitial pneumonia with progressive fibrosis of the pulmonary epithelium. The incidence of IPF is increasing worldwide as the population ages and with that, there is a concomitant increase in the incidence of lung cancer in these patients who are living longer with the disease. The average length of time for lung cancer development following an IPF diagnosis is 3 years. Given the high prevalence of lung cancer among patients with pulmonary fibrosis, we wondered if pulmonary fibrosis could be classified as a precancerous disease. We provided support from the Pubmed published literature to investigate whether pulmonary fibrosis meets the five criteria of the National Cancer Institute's definition of premalignant conditions for classification as a precancerous disease. We found out pulmonary fibrosis meets the five criteria of the National Cancer Institute's definition of a premalignant condition and can be considered a precancerous disease. To identify early lung cancer in patients with pulmonary fibrosis, regular screening with HRCT and PET-CT scans is highly recommended for these patients.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a devastating interstitial lung disease with a bleak prognosis. Mounting evidence suggests that IPF shares bio-molecular similarities with lung cancer. Given the deep understanding of the programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) pathway in cancer immunity and the successful application of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in lung cancer, recent studies have noticed the role of the PD-1/PD-L1 axis in IPF. However, the conclusions are ambiguous, and the latent mechanisms remain unclear. In this review, we will summarize the role of the PD-1/PD-L1 axis in IPF based on current murine models and clinical studies. We found that the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway plays a more predominant profibrotic role than its immunomodulatory role in IPF by interacting with multiple cell types and pathways. Most preclinical studies also indicated that blockade of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway could attenuate the severity of pulmonary fibrosis in mice models. This review will bring significant insights into understanding the role of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway in IPF and identifying new therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and fatal lung disease with limited therapeutic options, and there is a huge unmet need for new therapies. A growing body of evidence suggests that the histone deacetylase (HDAC) family of transcriptional corepressors has emerged as crucial mediators of IPF pathogenesis. HDACs deacetylate histones and result in chromatin condensation and epigenetic repression of gene transcription. HDACs also catalyse the deacetylation of many non-histone proteins, including transcription factors, thus also leading to changes in the transcriptome and cellular signalling. Increased HDAC expression is associated with cell proliferation, cell growth and anti-apoptosis and is, thus, a salient feature of many cancers. In IPF, induction and abnormal upregulation of Class I and Class II HDAC enzymes in myofibroblast foci, as well as aberrant bronchiolar epithelium, is an eminent observation, whereas type-II alveolar epithelial cells (AECII) of IPF lungs indicate a significant depletion of many HDACs. We thus suggest that the significant imbalance of HDAC activity in IPF lungs, with a "cancer-like" increase in fibroblastic and bronchial cells versus a lack in AECII, promotes and perpetuates fibrosis. This review focuses on the mechanisms by which Class I and Class II HDACs mediate fibrogenesis and on the mechanisms by which various HDAC inhibitors reverse the deregulated epigenetic responses in IPF, supporting HDAC inhibition as promising IPF therapy.

Abstract
Pulmonary fibrosis is a fatal lung disease for which no effective treatment is available. Previous studies have shown that the expression of programmed cell death-Ligand (PD-L1) is significantly increased in pulmonary fibrosis, and that this is related to the occurrence of this disease. However, the underlying mechanism is not clear. To clarify the efficacy and mechanism of an anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody (anti-PD-L1 mAb) as a treatment for pulmonary fibrosis, we conducted histopathological, molecular, and functional analyses in a mouse model of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis and a cell model of fibrosis induced by transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1). Our results indicate that PD-L1 is highly expressed in the lung fibrosis model. The anti-PD-L1 mAb significantly alleviated bleomycin-induced lung structural disorders and collagen deposition in mice and inhibited the proliferation, migration, activation and extracellular matrix deposition of TGF-β1-induced lung fibroblasts. Interestingly, the anti-PD-L1 mAb could also alleviate the autophagy impairment observed in pulmonary fibrosis. The potential mechanism is through the downregulation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. Our study provides evidence of the crucial ability of anti-PD-L1 mAbs to activate autophagy in the context of pulmonary fibrosis, providing a new strategy for the treatment of this disease.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD) of unknown aetiology, with a median survival of 2-4 years from the time of diagnosis. Although IPF has unknown aetiology by definition, there have been identified several risks factors increasing the probability of the onset and progression of the disease in IPF patients such as cigarette smoking and environmental risk factors associated with domestic and occupational exposure. Among them, cigarette smoking together with concomitant emphysema might predispose IPF patients to lung cancer (LC), mostly to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), increasing the risk of lung cancer development. To this purpose, IPF and LC share several cellular and molecular processes driving the progression of both pathologies such as fibroblast transition proliferation and activation, endoplasmic reticulum stress, oxidative stress, and many genetic and epigenetic markers that predispose IPF patients to LC development. Nintedanib, a tyrosine-kinase inhibitor, was firstly developed as an anticancer drug and then recognized as an anti-fibrotic agent based on the common target molecular pathway. In this review our aim is to describe the updated studies on common cellular and molecular mechanisms between IPF and lung cancer, knowledge of which might help to find novel therapeutic targets for this disease combination.
