Together all these results, we conclude that S100A4 contributes to TGF-β1- induced pro-fibrogenic function in fibroblasts activation, and MET was able to protect against TGF-β1-induced fibroblasts activation and BLM-induced PF by down-regulating S100A4 expression through AMPK-STAT3 axis. This evidence concerns the gene S100A4 and pemphigus foliaceus.
