Non-neoplastic pulmonary proliferative diseases are characterized by a complex interaction between proliferating lung cells and a variety of resident and infiltrating host cells, secreted factors, and extracellular matrix proteins, collectively referred to as the microenvironment. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) refers to a specific condition characterized by chronic interstitial pneumonia and fibrosis of unknown cause, for which there are still no effective treatments. According to the current pathogenetic perspective, the aberrant proliferative events in IPF resemble those occurring during malignant transformation in tumors. Growing evidence supports the neoplasm-like molecular profile of IPF, and this fascinating hypothesis is beginning to be exploited for therapeutic purposes. Tyrosine kinase receptors (RTKs) are known to be major players in the onset and progression of cancer. A
