IPF samples were obtained from 16 subjects who underwent surgical lung biopsy for diagnosis

The receptor for AGEs (RAGEs) has been implicated in the lung fibrotic process and the alveolar homeostasis. However, this AGE-RAGE aging pathway has been under-explored in IPF. Differences in AGEs and RAGE expression between both groups were evaluated by RT-PCR, Western blot and immunohistochemistry.

But I am weirded out why she got all offended and stingy towards me afterwards and days after, as if I want to say sorry to her for a thousand times.

With a benefit of the doubt, maybe because she wants to consider me as a friend instead and that her being a conservative Chinese girl does not allow us being together.

Carleen:
I admitted to a girl that I like her and if she wants to have a relationship with me but I think she got offended by it.

Why did my ex of nearly a year act so friendly?

Flavia:
Do you think his actions reveal anything that he's maybe trying to hide about how he really feels?

Flavia:
I am moving on with life because I feel like in life what's meant to be will be, and right now, it just wouldn't work, but I'd never say never.
