Systemic pirfenidone treatment fails to mitigate fibrosis and compromises functional recovery in a porcine model of volumetric muscle loss

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Repurposing clinically approved antifibrotic agents presents a potential near‐term therapeutic strategy to mitigate the extensive fibrotic scarring that follows severe volumetric muscle loss (VML) injury and inhibits functional recovery. We hypothesized that daily oral administration of pirfenidone, an FDA‐approved antifibrotic, would mitigate

Agronomic and Grain Quality Traits of Different Chickpea Cultivars Grown in Southern Germany

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT In Germany, chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is so far considered as a “new” crop. Introducing “new” crops in new growing regions can face many challenges. One of the major challenges is selecting appropriate cultivars. This study aimed to provide clear, region‐specific recommendations for suitable chickpea cultivars to support future agronomic ...
