Macrophage cell surface receptor expression of 19 selected markers was assessed by indirect immunofluorescence and flow cytometry in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluids from patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF, n = 4), scleroderma (SCL-ILD, n = 14), mild asthma (n = 7), allergy without asthma (n = 2), and normal subjects (n = 9).
