  • Publication number: 20240034751
    Abstract: The present invention provides a polypeptide for preventing or treating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, which is synthesized by linking 9 to 10 amino acids together and comprises an amino acid sequence consisting of arginine (R, Arg)-glycine (G, Gly)-aspartic acid (D, Asp)-valine (V, Val)-phenylalanine (F, Phe)-proline (P, Pro)-serine (S, Ser)-tyrosine (Y, Tyr)-threonine (T, Thr). Accordingly, the polypeptide for preventing or treating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis according to the present invention may restore lung function to normal by fundamentally treating lung tissue that has undergone fibrosis due to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and furthermore, may delay or prevent the onset of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
