Exploring the Antifibrotic Potential of the heparan sulfate mimetic OTR4120: Insights from Preclinical Models
2024-10-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Rationale</h4> Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a debilitating lung disease characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM), resulting in lung function impairment. Heparan sulfate mimetics (HSm) have been suggested to have potential antifibrotic effects by regulating ECM. This study aims to investigate the impact of a specific HSm named OTR4120 on fibrotic processes in ex vivo , in...
