Anti-fibrotic action of pirfenidone in Dupuytren’s disease-derived fibroblasts Open
Taken together these results suggest the PFD can potentially prevent TGF-β1-induced fibroblast to myofibroblast transformation and inhibit ECM production mainly Type I- and Type III- collagen and fibronectin in DD-derived fibroblasts. Furt…
