Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating fibrosis, containing a pheophorbide compound as an active ingredient. The pharmaceutical composition can effectively inhibit fibrosis of tissues by inhibiting signaling of TGF-[beta] which causes fibrosis and inhibiting activation and expression of collagen and fibronectin, and is significantly superior in the anti-fibrotic activity compared to nintedanib or pirfenidone, which are commercially available therapeutic agents for pulmonary fibrosis, and therefore may be widely used in the prevention or treatment of fibrosis.
