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.

Identification of Hub Genes in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Their Association with Lung Cancer by Bioinformatics Analysis.

Background: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, and irreversible disease with a high mortality rate worldwide. However, the etiology and pathogenesis of IPF have not yet been fully described. Moreover, lung cancer is a significant complication of IPF and is associated with increased mortality.

-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.
