Fluorofenidone (AKF-PD) is a novel pyridone agent that reduces the deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) in various models of renal fibrosis. However, there are no reports on the effect of AKF-PD in preventing fibrosis in the folic acid nephropathy model. Besides, the mechanisms of action of AKF-PD in preventing renal fibrosis are not fully understood. In the study, we observed that AKF-PD reduced folate-induced kidney injury, ameliorated the deterioration of renal function, and suppressed the deposition of ECM by decreasing the
