Abstract
|
Pulmoary fibrosis is the final outcome for a variety of interstitial lung disease,and there is no effective treatment. Tetrandrine (Tet) is the main alkaloid isolated from the lumpy root of Stephania tetrandra,and has shown good anti-fibrosis effect in the treatment of silicosis, with low price and few side effects. this paper is intended to summarize the main mechanism of tetrandrine anti-fibrosis,including:uppressing inflammatory reaction; improving oxidative stress; affecting cell apoptosis; interventing the expression of TGF-β1. meanwhile, the clinical reports of tetrandrine in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in recent years were introduced, which provided theoretical basis for clinical application. |
