Bleomycin-Induced Injury, Mouse. A Model for Lung Injury

  • Chapter
Respiratory System

Part of the book series: Monographs on Pathology of Laboratory Animals ((LABORATORY))

Abstract

The gross appearance does not distinguish developing and established fibrotic lesions induced by bleomycin from injury caused by drugs or other chemicals. After a single intravenous dose fibrosis is multifocal, rarely confluent; diffuse lobular and lobar fibrosis follow endotracheal administration.
