Circulating Fibrocytes Correlate with Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome Development Following Lung Transplantation: A Novel Clinical Biomarker

BACKGROUND: Development of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) following lung transplantation confers increased patient morbidity and mortality. Fibrocytes are circulating, bone marrow derived mesenchymal cell progenitors that influence tissue repair and fibrosis. Accumulated evidence has implic...
