The effect and mechanism of LE (Glycyrrhiza glabra) acting on TGF-β1-activated NPDFs. By inhibiting the MAPK/ERK-1/2 signaling pathway, LE prevents downstream α-SMA from differentiating fibroblasts into myofibroblasts and consequently impairs the production of ECM, including FBN and type I collagen
