Accelerated ageing in lungs

Symposium
Chairs: M. Ichinose (Sendai, Japan), G. Caramori (Messina (ME), Italy)
Aims: to discuss recent advances in our understanding of the molecular processes that underlie accelerated ageing and cellular senescence and how these processes may lead to chronic lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and pulmonary hypertension and their comorbidities. Since the elderly population, which is prone to multi-morbidity, is increasing, these diseases will become more and more important for respiratory and general physicians, particularly the latter.
