Chromone scaffold–mediated reprogramming of the epithelial–mesenchymal transition prevents fibrosis
2017-02-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Fibrotic diseases are major causes of morbidity and mortality, and the epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a central role in the development of tissue/organ fibrosis. We discovered that eupatilin, a member of the chromone scaffold (CS)-containing compounds found ubiquitously in the plant kingdom, completely reversed fibrogenesis in vitro and substantially ameliorated bleomycin-induced...
