Experimental flowchart for inducing PF in rats’ left lung, administration of therapeutic agents nintedanib and pirfenidone, and transplantation of HUMSCs. The day when 5 mg BLM was injected into rats’ left bronchus was set as day 0. On day 21 following BLM injection, either daily administration of nintedanib/pirfenidone was initiated or one single transplantation of HUMSCs was conducted. After 4 weeks, the changes in the lung were observed, and various assessments were performed (a). The rats were divided into a total of five groups (b)
