Improvement of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis through a combination of < em > Astragalus < /em > radix and < em > Angelica sinensis < /em > radix via mammalian target of rapamycin signaling pathway-induced autophagy in rat

CONCLUSIONS: The combination of AR and AS protects against IPF by inducing autophagy via inhibiting the mTOR signaling pathway. The synergistic action of AR and AS is superior to that of either AR or AS alone.PMID:38505077 | PMC:PMC10944740 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-24-28
