Popis: Objective(s): We aimed to investigate the preventative effect of Qing Fei Hua Xian Decoction (QFHXD) against pulmonary fibrosis (PF) and its potential mechanisms. Materials and Methods: Bleomycin (BLM)-induced rats were respectively treated with 413.3, 826.6, and 1239.9 mg/kg of QFHXD and prednisone for 28 days. The lung tissues of rats were collected on day 28 for histological and western blotting analysis. Results: QFHXD significantly reduced alveolus inflammation, collagen accumulation, and fibrosis deposition in BLM-induced PF rats (P
