Inhibition of Rho GEFs attenuates pulmonary fibrosis through suppressing myofibroblast activation and reprogramming profibrotic macrophages
Abstract Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis has a poor prognosis, with existing medications only partially alleviating symptoms, highlighting the urgent need for new therapeutic approaches. The dysregulations of Rho GTPases/ROCK are related with various diseases, including fibrosis. Nevertheless, the dev...
