Melittin alleviates bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in vivo through regulating TGF-β1/Smad2/3 and AMPK/SIRT1/PGC-1α signaling pathways
Objective(s): The present study investigated the protective effect of melittin (MEL) against bleomycin (BLM)- induced pulmonary fibrosis (PF) in mice and the mechanism underlying this effect.Materials and Methods: A mouse model of PF was established by intratracheal injection of 3.5 mg/kg BLM.
