Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Liposomal pirfenidone as a anti-fibrotic drug formulation was designed and prepared, and its efficacy as a pulmonary drug delivery system for treatment of pulmonary fibrosis was evaluated. Liposomal pirfenidone was efficiently delivered to fibroblasts and it inhibited collagen production in fibroblasts. This study suggests that aerosol-based liposomal pirfenidone is a new therapeutic strategy.
