| Abstract |
The pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis is a complicated and complex process that involves phenotypic abnormalities of a variety of cell types and dysregulations of multiple signaling pathways. There are numerous genetic, epigenetic and post-transcriptional mechanisms that have been identified to participate in the pathogenesis of this disease. However, efficacious therapeutics developed from these studies have been disappointingly limited. In the past several years, a group of new molecules, i.e., non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), has been increasingly appreciated to have critical roles in the pathological progression of lung fibrosis. In this review, we summarize the recent findings on the roles of ncRNAs in the pathogenesis of this disorder. We analyze the translational potential of this group of molecules in treating lung fibrosis. We also discuss challenges and future opportunities of studying and utilizing ncRNAs in lung fibrosis. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 May 2016.
All research outputs
#7,591,533
of 23,794,258 outputs
Outputs from Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences
#1,602
of 4,151 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#88,354
of 268,709 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences
#19
of 59 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,794,258 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 67th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,151 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.0. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 61% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 268,709 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 59 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 62% of its contemporaries.
