Info:

Collaborators at North Carolina State University report success treating Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) with inhalation treatment with lung spheroid cell-secretome and exosomes using mouse models. IPF is a fatal and incurable form of interstitial lung disease in which persistent injury results in scar tissue formation.

Pippin Prep was used to isolate microRNA sequencing libraries for studying the microRNA profile of exosomes post-treatment.
