Pirfenidone suppresses polarization to M2 phenotype macrophages and the fibrogenic activity of rat lung fibroblasts

Pirfenidone is a representative medication to treat interstitial pulmonary fibrosis. Researchers reported pirfenidone (>100 µg/ml) significantly suppressed fibroblast growth in vitro. However, clinically, the maximum concentration of pirfenidone in the blood is approximately 10 µg/ml. We hypothes...
