We investigated the in vitro effect of pirfenidone in transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)-induced myofibroblast transdifferentiation and extracellular matrix (ECM) homeostasis in primary cultured orbital fibroblasts from patients with Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO). This evidence concerns the gene TGFB1 and Graves ophthalmopathy.
