Pirfenidone, an Anti-Fibrotic Drug, Suppresses the Growth of Human Prostate Cancer Cells by Inducing G₁ Cell Cycle Arrest

Pirfenidone (PFD) is an anti-fibrotic drug used to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis by inducing G₁ cell cycle arrest in fibroblasts. We hypothesize that PFD can induce G₁ cell cycle arrest in different types of cells, including cancer cells. To investigate the effects of PFD treatment on the grow...
