Increased granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) levels in BAL fluid from patients with sulfur mustard gas-induced pulmonary fibrosis.
Herein we have studied, using RT-competitive PCR, the expression of GM-CSF mRNA during the early steps of pulmonary fibrosis development after intra-alveolar instillation of bleomycin, a well-established experimental model of this lesion.
