Protective efficacy of pirfenidone in rats with pulmonary fibrosis induced by bleomycin
CONCLUSIONS: Pirfenidone had a statistically significant protective effect in bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis and pleuritis in rats. Despite the presence of inflammation in the tissue, no significant changes were observed in inflammation markers in the peripheral blood. Novel serum biomarkers are needed to indicate the presence of inflammation and fibrosis in the lung.PMID:37712376 | DOI:10.36141/svdld.v40i3.13847
