General description
Application
Pirfenidone has been used:
- as a post-operative eye drop in rabbits to analyse its antifibrotic effect to improve glaucoma filtration surgery[3]
- as an anti-scarring agent to examine whether it affects the foreign body reaction after glaucoma drainage device (GDD) implantation in a rabbit[2]
- to test its antifibrotic potential in primary cultures of human orbital fibroblasts (hOFs)[4]
- as tumor necrosis factor (TNFα) inhibitor to study its effect in hypoxia[5]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Inhibits collagen production and fibroblast proliferation.
Pirfenidone inhibits collagen production and fibroblast proliferation. It has shown antifibrotic and anti-inflammatory properties in variety of animal models of pulmonary fibrosis, and in clinical trials.
