The goal of the present study was to evaluate therapeutic potential of pulmonary treatment with combined inhibition of CXCR4 and PAI-1 in ALI and various disease stages of IPF. Both diseases share multiple pathological features, including overexpression of C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) and upregulation of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1).

The osteoblasts are bone-building cells that synthesize and secrete collagen fibers and other organic components needed to build the extracellular matrix of bone tissue. The use of perfluorocarbon emulsion polyplexes to achieve combined CXCR4 antagonism and PAI-1 inhibition is a promising strategy for treatment of ALI and IPF.Osteoprogenitor cells are found in the inner portion of the periosteum, in the endosteum, and in the canals within bone that contain blood vessels.
