The pmATII cells were isolated from mice as previously described [8 (link)]. The pmATII cells were seeded in 12 well-tissue culture plates and cultured in DMEM-F12 supplemented with 10% FCS, 2 mM 1-glutamine, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, 3.6 mg/ml glucose and 10 mM HEPES for 24 h to allow attachment. Cells were then cultured for 12 h in fresh 0.1% FCS containing medium. Subsequently, cells were pre-treated with Nintedanib (1 μM) (Selleck, Houston, TX) or Pirfenidone (500 μM) (Selleck, Houston, TX) or respective DMSO control for 48 h.
