“…Nintendanib inhibits NFκB, Smad3, STAT3 and multiple MAPK: Akt, ERK1/2, p38 MAPK signaling [ [148] , [149] , [150] ]. Both of these drugs can slow clinical IPF progression, do not reverse this process and have dose-limiting side effects, the latter possibly due to drug-protein adduct accumulation due to the irreversible nature of α,β−unsaturated carbonyl-protein derivatives [ 4 , [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] ]. NO 2 -OA is shown herein to limit the same pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic pathways, as well as being a strong inducer of PPARγ and Nrf2-regulated anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic responses [ 28 , 72 , 73 , [120] , [121] , [122] , 124 , 125 ].…”
