Progressive pulmonary fibrosis is caused by elevated mechanical tension on alveolar stem cells

(Cell 180, 107–121.e1–e17; January 9, 2020) In our paper we showed that the periphery-to-center progression of lung fibrosis is driven by a TGF-β signaling loop activated mechanical tension in alveolar stem cells. It has come to attention Figure 5F image selected represent cells from stretched+GSK3008348 condition came non-stretched control was inadvertently mislabeled. This error now been corrected using an acquired raw data, which properly labeled. The quantification shown 5G reflects data and not affected this error. new version figure consistent with reported conclusions.
