Pulmonary fibrosis (PF), also known as diffuse interstitial pulmonary fibrosis, is a very common end-stage manifestation of several diseases, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), pulmonary hypertension, and scleroderma, characterised by excessive matrix deposition and destruction of the lung architecture, finally leading to respiratory insufficiency. PF has become a global disease with significantly increased incidence rate, and the most common form of pulmonary fibrosis is idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

Lung fibrosis is a complex disease, a multitude of signal factors and signaling pathways is disrupted in this complex disease, such as TGF-β, Wnt, VEGF and PI3K–Akt. MCE offers a unique collection of 1692 compounds with identified and potential anti-pulmonary fibrosis activity. MCE Anti-Pulmonary Fibrosis Compound Library is a useful tool for anti-pulmonary fibrosis drugs screening and other related research.

For pre-dissolved solutions, 10 mM for compounds with the solubility not lower than 10 mM, 2 mM for compounds with solubility between 2 mM and 10 mM, and 3 mg/mL for compounds with unconfirmed molecular weight and solubility not lower than 3 mg/mL.
