Representative scratch test results in IPF-F after 24-h treatment with NAC and curcumin: 20 μM curcumin reduces wound closure in IPF-F as compared to untreated control. 10 mM NAC does not have a significant effect on wound closure rate. Combination treatment with 40 μM curcumin and 10 mM NAC results in decreased wound closure as compared to untreated control but is attenuated in comparison to 20 μM curcumin alone. Morphological changes observed in the curcumin treatment are also attenuated in the combination treatment
