Herein, we analyzed the effects of three representative phospholipid components, that is, dipalmitoilphosphatidylcoline (DPPC), phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), on collagen expression, apoptosis and Ca<sup>2+</sup> signaling in normal human lung fibroblasts (NHLF) and probed their effect in an experimental model ...[more]
