Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is an epithelial-driven interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology characterized by the excessive proliferation of fibroblast populations that synthesize large amounts of extracellular matrix. In this devastating disorder, all aging hallmarks appear prematurely or are altered. This review highlights key findings about IPF characteristics recently recognized as hallmarks of aging, including mechanical alterations, inflammaging, dysbiosis, alternative splicing, and disabled macroautophagy. It also revisits the classic hallmarks of aging, which encompass stem cell exhaustion, cellular senescence, and altered intercellular communication. Enhancing our understanding of the fundamental processes that underlie the altered hallmarks of aging in IPF may facilitate the development of innovative experimental strategies to improve therapeutic outcomes.
