Chlorogenic acid attenuates idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: An integrated analysis of network pharmacology, molecular docking, and experimental validation.

Aims: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic and progressive lung condition, the cause of which remains unknown and for which no effective therapeutic treatment is currently available. Chlorogenic acid (CGA), a natural polyphenolic compound found in different plants and foods, has emerged as a promising agent due to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antifibrotic properties. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effect of CGA in IPF remain unclear.

lncRNA-mRNA Co-Expression and Regulation Analysis in Lung Fibroblasts from Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease marked by abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) due to dysregulated expression of various RNAs in pulmonary fibroblasts. This study utilized RNA-seq data meta-analysis to explore the regulatory network of hub long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in IPF fibroblasts. The meta-analysis unveiled 584 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNA) and 75 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNA) in lung fibroblasts from IPF.

-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Attenuate Bleomycin-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis Trough Antioxidant, Anti-Inflammatory and Protease Activity in a Mouse Model.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most frequent and severe idiopathic interstitial pneumonia. It is a chronic and progressive disease with a poor prognosis and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. This disease has no cure; therefore, there is a clinical need to search for alternative treatments with greater efficacy.

Coadministration of 3'5-dimaleamylbenzoic acid and quercetin decrease pulmonary fibrosis in a systemic sclerosis model.

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease characterized by microvascular compromise and fibrosis. Pulmonary fibrosis, a prominent pulmonary complication in SSc, results in impaired lung function due to excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix components. This study aimed to investigate the effects of coadministration of 3'5-dimaleamylbenzoic acid (AD) and quercetin (Q) on key events in the development and maintenance of pulmonary fibrosis in a bleomycin (BLM)-induced SSc mouse model.

Proteomic Analysis Reveals Differential Expression Profiles in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Cell Lines.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, irreversible lung disorder of unknown cause. This disease is characterized by profibrotic activation of resident pulmonary fibroblasts resulting in aberrant deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. However, although much is known about the pathophysiology of IPF, the cellular and molecular processes that occur and allow aberrant fibroblast activation remain an unmet need.

miRNAs Contained in Extracellular Vesicles Cargo Contribute to the Progression of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: An In Vitro Aproach.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive lung disease. Lesions in the lung epithelium cause alterations in the microenvironment that promote fibroblast accumulation. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) transport proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, such as microRNAs (miRNAs).

The Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Progression: An Approach on Their Therapeutics Potential.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fibrosing interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology. Different types of cells are involved in fibrogenesis, which is persistently physical and molecular stimulation, either directly or by interacting with bioactive molecules and extracellular vesicles (EVs). Current evidence suggests that EVs play an essential role in IPF development.

Involvement of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis.

Pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic progressive disease with high incidence, prevalence, and mortality rates worldwide. It is characterized by excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix in the lung parenchyma. The cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in its pathogenesis are complex, and some are still unknown.

Proteomic Analysis Reveals Key Proteins in Extracellular Vesicles Cargo Associated with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis In Vitro.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, irreversible, and highly fatal disease. It is characterized by the increased activation of both fibroblast and myofibroblast that results in excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been described as key mediators of intercellular communication in various pathologies.
