We previously reported that oxidative stress drives pseudohypoxic hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway activation to promote pathogenetic collagen structure-function in human lung fibrosis (Brereton et al., 2022). Here, through bioinformatic studies we investigate HIF pathway activation status in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and whether this has prognostic significance. Applying a well-established HIF gene expression signature, we classified publicly available datasets int...
