Article Synopsis
- The study compared the effects of immature (Qingqiao) and mature (Laoqiao) Forsythiae Fructus on lung fibrosis in mice induced by bleomycin, focusing on their pharmacodynamics and composition differences.
- Both treatments improved mouse survival rates and lung health, with notable reductions in lung indices and significant histological improvements observed through various staining techniques.
- Further analysis revealed that both Qingqiao and Laoqiao affected key inflammatory and fibrotic markers in the lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, while molecular studies provided insight into the mechanisms of action and potential therapeutic benefits.
