Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) 7664 is a tissue section from a healthy lung whereas 1015 and 1033 are sections from IPF patients with various advanced degrees of IPF. The panels show representative images mapping the interactive states of GAS6 and PROS1 with AXL (pseudo-colour heat map of (Ef%) on the expression level of GAS6 and PROS1 (fluorescence images in grey scale). The individual violin plots quantify the heterogeneity of interactive states for both ligands and the receptor. The dotted line at 4% Ef represents the Förster Radius (R 0 ). Values below 4% are not representative of ligand-receptor interactions. (B) Global violin plots of all coincident regions (per pixel) of AXL-GAS6 and AXL-PROS1. Each global violin plot represents 2x10 6 data points. To determine the p values for AXL-GAS6 and AXL-PROS1, using non-parametric Mann- Whitney U test, we utilised 1000 randomly generated data points of the 2x10 6 . Healthy lung has similar distribution of AXL-GAS6 and AXL-PROS1 interactions, whereas the two patient samples show, in one case (1015) no interaction of AXL-GAS6 or AXL-PROS1 and another case (1033) a significantly higher distribution of AXL-PROS1 versus AXL-GAS6. The p values between AXL-GAS6 and AXL-PROS1 are 1.9x10 -3 (7664), 2.4x10 -1 (1015) and 8.2x10 - respectively. The dotted line at 4% Ef represents the Förster Radius (R 0 ).

doi: 10.1101/2025.04.07.647567

Figure Lengend Snippet: After injury, the normal repair process involves an initial inflammatory response, followed by AXL- GAS6 interaction, which promotes cell proliferation. Once sufficient proliferation is achieved, AXL-PROS1 binding occurs, halting proliferation and triggering cell differentiation. This balance between proliferation and differentiation ensures proper repair, leading to healthy alveoli. However, dysbalanced AXL signaling due to repeated injury and persistently high TGF- ß levels, can result in aberrant repair and irreversible fibrosis (IPF). This may occur due to high-affinity interaction between AXL and GAS6 prevents PROS1 from effectively binding to AXL. As a result, excessive proliferation occurs with insufficient differentiation, leading to aberrant repair and fibrosis. Scheme was created in BioRender. Geillinger-kästle, K.

C Genes encoding extracellular factors and upregulated or downregulated in AD-MSCs were selected using the Gene Ontology term “Extracellular region ” (GO0005576) and plotted as a Z-score heatmap of normalized counts showing the vehicle- vs. rapamycin-treated groups. D Transcripts Per Million (TPM) of extracellular factors from the “Hedgehog signaling” (SCUBE2 and MEGF8 ) and “TGF-β signaling” ( LTBP2 and FST ) pathways were extracted and plotted as dot-histograms to show their relative expression in the indicated conditions.
