Title
Tectorigenin inhibits the in vitro proliferation and enhances miR-338* expression of pulmonary fibroblasts in rats with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Year
2010
Function
"Tectorigenin inhibits the proliferation of pulmonary fibroblasts in vitro and enhances miR-338* expression, which might in turn downregulate LPA1. This indicates a potential inhibitory role of tectorigenin on the pathogenesis of IPF."
