    Snippet: Our previous studies have shown that a traditional Chinese herbal abstraction, Tanshinone IIA (TIIA), exerted significant protective effects on lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and hypoxic hypertension [17, 18] . In the present study, we explored TIIA's protective effects by employing a PF model of rat, and the ACE-2/ANG-(1-7) axis was investigated. In the present study, TIIA was shown to be effective on halting the development of .....
    Document: Our previous studies have shown that a traditional Chinese herbal abstraction, Tanshinone IIA (TIIA), exerted significant protective effects on lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and hypoxic hypertension [17, 18] . In the present study, we explored TIIA's protective effects by employing a PF model of rat, and the ACE-2/ANG-(1-7) axis was investigated. In the present study, TIIA was shown to be effective on halting the development of PF, which may via the ACE-2/ANG-(1-7) axis. This study provided new insights into the mechanisms underlying the lung beneficial effects of TIIA and may offer new targets for treating PF.
