Title: Medicament and combination product used for preventing, alleviating and/or treating fibrosis, and use thereof

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present disclosure belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry, and in particular relates to medicament and combination product used for preventing, alleviating and/or treating fibrosis, and use thereof. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Fibrosis is a pathological change, manifested by fibroblast activation and proliferation, increased fibrous connective tissue in tissues and organs, and decreased parenchymal cells. The continued progress of fibrosis can cause structural damage and loss of function of tissues and organs. Fibrosis of important organs seriously affects the quality of life of patients, and even life-threatening. Worldwide, tissue fibrosis is the main cause of disability and death caused by many diseases. According to relevant statistics in the United States, about 45% of the patients who died from various diseases in this country can be attributed to disease of tissue fibroplasia. At present, the treatment methods and drugs for this disease are still very lacking, and the prognosis is very poor. The development of new drugs that can effectively treat fibrosis is a very important and urgent task. 
     Carrimycin, also known as Bitespiramycin and Shengjimycin, is a new type of antibiotic with 4″-isovalerylspiramycin as a main component, formed by cloning the 4″-isovaleryl transferase gene (4″-o-acyl-transferase) of carbomycin-producing bacteria into spiramycin producing bacteria through transgenic technology, directionally acylating spiramycin 4″-OH, and adding an isovaleryl side chain at the 4″ position under the collaboration between the Institute of Biotechnology of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and the applicant. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     When R=H, R′=COCH 2 CH(CH 3 ) 2 , the compound is Isovalerylspiramycin I; 
     When R=COCH 3 , R′=COCH 2 CH(CH 3 ) 2 , the compound is Isovalerylspiramycin II; 
     When R=COCH 2 CH 3 , R′=COCH 2 CH(CH 3 ) 2 , the compound is Isovalerylspiramycin III. 
     The total content of the main active ingredient of isovalerylspiramycins (I+II+III) in Carrimycin is not less than 60%, and the total content of acylated spiramycin not less than 80%, and it is an acceptable pharmaceutical composition in pharmacy. The central structure of the Carrimycin is a 16-membered lactone ring, which is connected with a molecule of forosamine, a molecule of mycaminose, and a molecule of mycarose. Its main components, isovalerylspiramycins I, II, III, structurally differ from spiramycin in that the group attached to the 4″ position of mycarose is isovaleryl instead of hydroxyl. The chemical structure of the Carrimycin, as shown in a formula (1), contains more than ten kinds of components. At present, the composition standard of the finished product of Carrimycin is that Isovalerylspiramycin III is ≥30%, the total ratio of Isovalerylspiramycin I, II, III is ≥60%, the proportion of total acylated spiramycin is ≥80%, and the sum of other unknown components is ≤5%. 
     Carrimycin is a 16-membered macrolide antibiotic with active groups of carboxyl, alkoxy, epoxy, ketone and aldehyde groups and a pair of conjugated C═C, with molecular weight of about 884-982. Due to the similar chemical structure, Carrimycin and macrolide antibiotics have a lot in common: they are easily soluble in most organic solvents such as esters, acetone, chloroform, and alcohols, and are slightly soluble in petroleum ether, and insoluble in water; their molecular structures contain two dimethylamine groups and is weakly alkaline, and thus they are easily soluble in acidic aqueous solutions; they have a “negative solubility” quality that decreases in solubility with the increasing temperature. Because the main component of Carrimycin, isovalerylspiramycin, has a longer carbon chain at the 4″ position, it has a poor hydrophilicity, and its solubility in water is less than that of spiramycin and 4″-acetylspiramycin. 
     This drug has good lipophilicity, strong tissue penetration ability, fast oral absorption, long-term maintenance in the body, and sustained post-antibiotic effect. According to the relationship between the efficacy and the chemical conformation, after the acylation of the macrolide antibiotic at the 4″ position, its lipophilicity and in vivo activity are improved, the in vivo antibacterial activity and clinical treatment effect have been significantly improved, and the stability of the antibiotic in the body is also enhanced with the growth of the carbon chain of the 4″-hydroxy ester, i.e., isovalerylspiramycin&gt;butyrylspiramycin&gt;propionylspiramycin&gt;acetyl spiramycin. 
     Preliminary in vivo and in vitro pharmacodynamic tests show that the drug not only has good antibacterial activity on most G+ bacteria, but also has a certain effect on some G− bacteria, and various technical indexes are obviously superior to azithromycin, erythromycin, acetylspiramycin and midecamycin, especially has the strongest antibacterial activity on  Mycoplasma pneumoniae , and has certain antibacterial activity on erythromycin resistant bacteria,  Neisseria gonorrhoeae , pneumococcus,  Staphylococcus aureus, Pesudomonas pyocyaneum, Himophilus influenzae, Haemophilus influenzae, Bacteroides fragilis, Legionella, Bacillus multiforme  and  Clostridium perfringens , and has little cross resistance to erythromycin resistant  Staphylococcus aureus  clinically. Carrimycin will be mainly used to treat Gram-positive bacteria infectious diseases, especially upper respiratory infection, and may be used for urinary system infection, etc. 
     Pharmacokinetic research results show that the active effective components in Carrimycin are mainly isovalerylspiramycins I, II and III. Carrimycin is rapidly metabolized into spiramycin after entering the body, and its oral absolute bioavailability is 91.6% on average based on the AUC 0-t  sum of the parent drugs isovalerylspiramycins I, II, III and the active metabolites spiramycins I, II and III. The elimination of Carrimycin is slower after a single dose, and T 1/2β  is between 23 and 27 hours. 
     From the end of 2019 to January 2020, pneumonia of unknown cause occurred in some areas, and the bronchoalveolar lavage specimens of the patients were submitted for next-generation sequencing, and a new type of coronavirus was found. On Feb. 12, 2020, the WHO named the disease caused by the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2): Corona Virus Disease 2019, COVID-19. For lung damage caused by novel coronavirus infection, including pulmonary fibrosis, it is urgent to find effective treatment drugs and drugs to improve lung symptoms. 
     So far, there has been no record or report on the treatment of fibrosis with Carrimycin. 
     In view of that, the present disclosure has been proposed.

Many factors can cause liver fibrosis, such as viral infection, inflammation, oxidative stress, and alcoholism. 
     Regarding the pancreatic fibrosis, a large amount of protein secreted by pancreatic acinar cells, while the fluid and bicarbonate secreted by pancreatic duct cells are not increased, resulting in a decrease in the concentration of Lithostathine and GP2 (A protein that can form a cast) secreted by pancreatic acinar cells, and precipitation in the pancreatic duct, causing pancreatic fibrosis. 
     Kidney fibrosis is a pathological process in which extracellular matrix and inappropriate connective tissue accumulate in the kidney, leading to changes in kidney structure and impaired function. 
     Bone marrow fibrosis is a myeloproliferative disease caused by the proliferation of collagen in the hematopoietic tissue of the bone marrow, and the hematopoietic function seriously affected by the fibrous tissue. 
     Skin fibrosis is formed when fibroblasts divide, proliferate, migrate to the damaged part, produce extracellular matrix, and form scar tissue to repair the wound under conditions such as trauma. Scar formation is a process of gradual fibrosis of granulation tissue. 
     The present disclosure further provides a use of the medicament or the combination product in preventing, alleviating and/or treating fibrosis. 
     The present disclosure further provides a use of the medicament or the combination product in inhibiting inflammation or lipid peroxidation, inhibiting the proliferation and activation of fibroblasts, and promoting collagen degradation. 
     After adopting the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the present disclosure has the following beneficial effects: 
     The medicines and combination products provided by the invention have good therapeutic effects in treating fibrosis, and have important social and economic benefits. 
     The specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

     The Preparation Process: 
     Preparation of the tablet core: the main drug and the excipients respectively passed through a 100-mesh sieve, and a prescription dosages of raw powder of medicament C and microcrystalline cellulose with a ½ prescription dosage of sodium starch glycolate were uniformly mixed, then an aqueous solution of 5% povidone K30 was added to prepare a soft material. An 18-mesh sieve was used for granulating, and the wet granules were dried under a ventilated condition at 60DEG C for 2 h. After the wet granules were dried, a 18-mesh screen was used for dispersing the granules, then a ½ prescription dosage of sodium starch glycolate and magnesium stearate were added. And after the materials were uniformly mixed, the mixture was tableted by using a shallow concave die of a diameter of 11 mm, to obtain a drug-containing tablet core with the tablet weight of 350 mg and the hardness of 6.5 kg. 
     Preparation of the coating solution: the required amount of Opadry II (white color) was weighed, the required amount of water was added into the preparation container in batches, after all of the water has been added, the stirring speed was reduced to make the spiral disappear, and the stirring was continued to be performed for 30 min to obtain the coating solution. 
     Preparation of the film coated tablet: the tablet core was placed into a coating pan, the coating conditions were determined, and coating was carried out with the main rotation speed of 20 r/min, the air inlet temperature of 40DEG C, the air outlet temperature of 30 DEG C, the atomization pressure of 0.02 Mpa and the spraying flow rate of 1 ml/min. And after a constant state was achieved, the coating was continuously to be sprayed for 1.5 h to obtain a tablet with a smooth surface and a uniform colour and lustre. The tablet were qualified if it were in compliance with the inspecting standards of thin-film coating. The coating adds the weight by approximately 5%.

     Experimental Example 1 the Effect of Medicament C in Anti-Liver Fibrosis 
     The present invention uses human hepatic stellate cell line LX-2 as the research object in vitro, and uses Real-time PCR and Western Blot as research methods to confirm that medicament C has an inhibitory effect on the mRNA and protein levels of the main fibrosis maker in LX-2 cells induced by TGFβ1. At the same time, in order to further determine the anti-fibrosis effect of medicament C, the present invention uses the common bile duct ligation rat fibrosis model, and detects the pathological changes of rat liver tissue after oral administration of medicament C. The results show that medicament C can effectively relieve Pathological changes and degree of fibrosis in the rat liver caused by bile duct ligation. 
     1. Medicament C (Using Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I) Inhibits the Activity of COL1A1 Promoter-Luciferase Reporter Gene. 
     The constructed monoclonal cells LX2-COL stably expressing the type I collagen al promoter COL1A1P were spread on a 96-well plate with 2×10 4  cells per well. After the cell confluence is about 90%, different concentrations of medicament C (using Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I) were added, and each group of experiments has 4 replicate holes. Follow the instructions of Bright-Glo™ Luciferase Assay System, the medium in wells were removed after 24 hours, and 50 μl/well of any medium was added to each well. 50 μl of luciferase substrate was added to each well, and detection was performed after 2 min. The results showed that as the concentration of medicament C was increased, the fluorescence intensity was decreased. When the concentrations of Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I was 40 μM, the fluorescence intensity was decreased most significantly ( FIG. 1 ).  FIG. 1  showed the inhibitory effect of Carrimycin (HB) and Isovalerylspiramycin I (HY) on the activity of type I collagen al promoter. This result showed that Carrimycin and its single-component Isovalerylspiramycin I have a significant inhibitory effect on the activity of the COL1A1 promoter. 
     2. Medicament C (Using Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I) Inhibits the Proliferation of Human Hepatocytes HepG2 and Human Hepatic Stellate Cells LX-2. 
     Human liver cancer HepG2 cells and human hepatic stellate cells LX-2 were plated on 96-well plates and cultured, with 4×10 3  cells per well. After 24 hours, different concentrations of medicament C were added (using Carrimycin (HB) or Isovalerylspiramycin I (HY)), and each group of experiments had 3 replicate holes. After the cells were treated with drugs for 24 or 48 hours, they were stained by the sulforhodamine (SRB) method, and the absorbance at 515 nm was measured with a microplate reader to calculate the half inhibition rate (IC50). The results showed that Carrimycin and its single-component Isovalerylspiramycin I had a certain inhibitory effect on the proliferation of the HepG2 and LX-2 cells, with IC50 between 10 μM and 100 μM ( FIG. 2 ). 
     3. Medicament C (Using Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I) Inhibits the Expression of the Main Markers of Fibrosis in LX-2 Cells Induced by TGFβ1 at the mRNA and Protein Levels 
     TGFβ1 induced LX-2 cells and medicament C (using Climycin (HB) or Isovalerylspiramycin I (HY)) administration treatment: LX-2 cells were cultured in DMEM, High Glucose, GlutaMAX™ (Gibco10566016) medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and mixture of 1%  Streptomyces  and 1% penicillin at 37 DEG C and 5% CO 2 . 1×10 5  cells per well were plated on a 6-well plate. After 24 hours of culture, the original medium in the 6-well plate was removed by a vacuum pump and added with DMEM medium without 10% fetal bovine serum. After starvation for 24 hours, TGF-β1 (2 ng/ml) was added to induce cell, and different concentration gradients of Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I were added at the same time, the concentrations were 10 μmol/L and 20 μmol/L respectively. A control group (without adding TGF-β1 induction), TGF-β1 induction group (only TGF-β1 induction) and TGF-β1 induction administration group (both TGF-β1 induction and medicament C treatment) were set. 
     After culturing for 24 hours, the medium was discarded, and the total RNA of LX-2 cells were extracted according to the TRIzol instructions. Following the instructions of Roche Transcriptor First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit, the LX-2 total RNA were to reverse transcribed into cDNA. The obtained cDNA, sterile water, Roche FastStart Universal Probe Master (Rox) and ABI TaqMan probes (GAPDH, COL1A1, TGFB1, ACTA2) were prepared into a 20 μl reaction system, and the ABI 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR System was used for detection. GAPDH was used as an internal control to analyze the results. The data showed that with the increase of the doses of Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I, the expression of COL1A1, TGFB1, and ACTA2 decreased. And Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I at 20 μmol/L had the best inhibitory effect on COL1A1, TGFB1, and ACTA2 at the mRNA level ( FIG. 3 ). 
     After the cells were induced by TGFβ1 and continued to be cultured for 24 hours, 1 ml of Ripa lysis solution (containing 1% PMSF) was added to each well of the 6-well plate to extract the protein. And the protein concentration was determined by the BCA method. The sample was loaded at 25 μg/20 μl per well. After electrophoresis, transfer membrane, 5% skim milk blocking, and antibody incubation, the desired protein bands was observed by using the Tianneng 5200 imaging system. The results showed that the expression of COL1A1, TGFβ1, and α-smooth muscle actin decreased with the increase of the concentration of Carrimycin. And the expression of the above-mentioned marker proteins could be significantly inhibited when the Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I was at 20 μmol/L ( FIG. 4 ). 
     4. Preparation of SD Rat Common Bile Duct Ligation Induced Fibrosis Model 
     Twelve male SD rats weighing 180-220 g were selected and randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, and medicament C administration group, with 4 rats in each group. Before the animal experiment and after fasting and water for 12 hours, the animals were anesthetized with isoflurane for surgery. The model group and the drug administration group underwent common bile duct ligation (BDL). In a sterile operating table, a midline incision was made in the upper abdomen, the liver margin was raised, the duodenum was opened, and the common bile duct was separated by 2-3 cm. Two lines with No. 000 surgical sutures were used to ligate at the place near the duodenum and near the hilum respectively, and the common bile duct was cut off from the middle. In the sham operation group, only the midline incision of the upper abdomen was made and sutured, and the common bile duct was not ligated. After the animals were awake from anesthesia, they ate and drank normally and drank freely. Gavage was started on the second day after surgery, and normal saline (sham operation group, BDL model group) and Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I 200 mg/kg (medicament C administration group) were given, respectively, once a day for 14 consecutive days. 
     5. The Improvement Effect of Medicament C (Using Carrimycin) on the Pathological Structural Changes of Rat Liver Induced by BDL 
     Before sampling, the rats were fasted and water for 12 hours, and the rats were sacrificed. The liver tissues were taken, and the large hepatic lobe tissues were cut out and fixed in 10% formalin. After dehydration, paraffin embedding, slicing, baking slices, etc., paraffin sections are made. Hematoxylin-Eosin (H&amp;E) staining solution was used for staining, and the changes in the pathological structure of rat liver tissue were observed under a microscope. The results showed that in the sham operation group, the liver cells of the liver tissue of the rats in the sham operation group were arranged neatly, the liver lobule structure was complete, and there was no bile duct hyperplasia. The pathological structure of the liver tissue of the rats after BDL changed significantly, the bile duct hyperplasia was very obvious, and the tissue necrosis was significantly increased. The pathological changes of the liver tissue structure of the rats in the Carrimycin administration group were relieved, the bile duct proliferation was inhibited, and the degree of tissue necrosis was significantly reduced ( FIG. 5 ). It showed that Carrimycin can significantly improve the pathological changes of liver tissue in BDL rats. 
     6. Inhibitory Effect of Medicament C (Using Carrimycin) on Fibrosis Induced by BDL in Rats 
     The paraffin sections were stained with Masson dye to observe the changes in liver fibrosis in rats. The results showed that the degree of liver fibrosis in rats after BDL increased significantly, and collagen deposition was serious. The fibrosis and collagen deposition were significantly inhibited after the administration of Carrimycin ( FIG. 6 ). It showed that Carrimycin can significantly inhibit BDL-induced fibrosis in rats. 
     Experimental Example 2 Function of Medicine C in Inhibit Pulmonary Fibrosis 
     Firstly, medicine C (using Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I) inhibits the expression of the main markers of fibrosis in lung fibroblasts MRC-5 induced by TGFβ1 at the mRNA and protein levels. 
     Method for TGFβ1 inducing lung fibroblasts MRC-5 and administrating Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I comprises: MRC-5 was cultured in a MEM (Gibco 11095-080) culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, a mixture of 1% penicillin and 1% streptomycin and 1% non-essential amino acids at 37 DEG C and 5% CO 2 , and was plated in a 6-well according to 3×10 5  cells per well. After culturing for 24 hours, the original culture medium in the 6-well plate was removed by a vacuum pump, and MEM culture medium without 10% fetal bovine serum was added to be starvation culture for 24 hours. And then TGF-β1 (3 ng/ml) induction was added, and at the same time different concentration gradients of Carrimycin and Isovalerylspiramycin I were added. The concentrations were 10 μmol/L, 20 μmol/L, 40 μmol/L. The following groups were set, control group (without adding TGF-β1 induction), TGF-β1 induction group (only TGF-β1 induction is added) and TGF-β1 induction administration group (both adding TGF-β1 induction and treating with Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I). 
     After culturing for 24 hours, the culture medium was discarded, and the Total RNA of MRC-5 cells were extracted according to the operation steps of the TRIzol instructions. According to the operation steps of the instructions of Roche Transcriptor First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit, Total RNA of LX-2 was reversely transcribed into cDNA. The cDNA, sterile water, Roche FastStart Universal Probe Master (Rox) and ABI TaqMan probes (GAPDH, COL1A1, TGFB1, ACTA2, MMP2) were prepared into a 20 μl reaction system, and the ABI 7500 Fast Real-time PCR System was used for detection. GAPDH was used as an internal control to analyze the results. It is showed by the data, with the increase of the dose of Carrimycin, the expressions of COL1A1, TGFB1, ACTA2, and MMP2 were decreased, and the effect of inhibiting COL1A1, TGFB1, and ACTA2 was the best at the mRNA level when the Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I was at 40 μmol/L. With the increase of the dose of Isovalerylspiramycin I, the expression of COL1A1 was decreases, and the effect of inhibiting COL1A1 at the mRNA level at 40 μmol/L was the best ( FIG. 7 ). 
     Secondly, the improvement effect of Carrimycin on pulmonary fibrosis of pneumonia (Corona Virus Disease 2019, COVID-19) caused by a novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection. 
     The subjects were 18-75 years old and met the diagnostic criteria for pneumonia caused by novel coronavirus infection (Fifth Edition). The patients meet any of the following: (1) having a fever again or clinical symptoms being worsen, (2) negative being turned to positive by throat swab nucleic acid test, (3) clinical symptoms being not improved or the result of nucleic acid test being still positive, (5) pneumonia or the progress of fibrosis being shown on chest CT. SOFA score: 1 point to 13 points 
     1. Treatment Method 
     Mild type: orally administrating 0.4 g Carrimycin tablets each time after a meal, once a day, for 7 consecutive days, and entering the follow-up observation period for 30 days after the treatment. 
     Typical type: orally administrating 0.4 g Carrimycin tablets each time after a meal, once a day, for 10 consecutive days, and entering the follow-up observation period for 30 days after the treatment. 
     Severe and critical type: orally administrating 0.4 g Carrimycin tablets each time after a meal, once a day, and administrating by nasogastric tube those for those who cannot be taken orally. After the treatment, the follow-up observation period was entered for 30 days. 
     2. Main Efficacy Indexes 
     (1) Time for keeping not having fever (days). 
     (2) Time for keeping being without pulmonary symptom (HRCT) (days). 
     (3) The negative rate of novel coronavirus by throat swabs test on the third day and seventh day after treatment (%). 
     3. The Overall Situation of the Patients 
     There were 47 patients of virus “positive by nucleic acid retest” or treated patients, including 11 patients of mild type, 27 patients of typical type, 3 patients of severe type, and 6 patients of critical type. After initial treatment, there were 40 patients being still positive for viral nucleic acid and 7 patients being negative for nucleic acid. 
     4. Evaluation of Main Curative Effect 
     (1) Among 40 patients with positive viral nucleic acid, 16 patients had conversed to nucleic acid negative on the third day, 13 patients had conversed to nucleic acid negative on seventh day, 1 patient had conversed to nucleic acid negative on fifteenth day, and the remaining 10 patients had just joined the group and the nucleic acid of them was not rechecked. 
     (2) There were 19 patients with lung inflammation at the time of enrollment (7 patients with nucleic acid negative and 12 patient with nucleic acid positive), and the marked improvement rate of lung inflammation was 73.7% (14/19) on the seventh day. 
     (3) At the time of enrollment, there were 5 patients with fever (3 patients with nucleic acid negative cases and 2 patients with nucleic acid positive). The normalization rate of the body temperature on the third day was 60% (3/5), and the normalization rate of the body temperature return rate on seventh day was 100% (5/5). 
     5. Improvement of Lung Symptoms in Main Patients 
     CT manifestations of pulmonary fibrosis include: 
     1. The distribution of lesions is peripheral and subpleural. 
     2. The CT manifestations of pulmonary fibrosis are significantly different in different periods. At the early stage patchy ground glass shadows in the middle and lower lungs is shown in HRCT, which indicates active lesions and reversible lesions. At this time, the changes in interstitial lesions are not obvious. 
     3. Progression is developed to pulmonary fibrosis, CT shows grid shadows, HRCT shows irregular thickening of the interlobular septum, and the small blood vessels in the lobules becomes obvious due to the thickening of the wall. In the late stage, CT shows wide honeycomb shadows, and the structure of the lobules is deformed. Because bronchiectasis is caused by pulmonary fibrosis, the wide honeycomb shadows are most obvious under the pleura of the middle and lower lungs. 
     4. Ground glass shadow: It is an important sign of pulmonary fibrosis. The ground glass shadow means that the lesion is in an active phase and needs to be actively treated. It can be an interstitial or substantial lesion. 
     5. Honeycomb shadow: It is a smaller cystic shadow, of which most are in several millimeters to ten millimeters, and a few can reach several centimeters. Honeycomb shadow has thick and clear fibrous walls, and appears generally in the periphery of the lungs and under the pleura. The normal structure of the part with obvious honeycomb shadow is distorted, the lobular structure is unrecognizable, and the pleura that is usually connected with the honeycomb shadow is slightly thickened, which is a manifestation of interstitial fibrosis in the late stage. 
     Patients with novel coronavirus-infected pneumonia have improved their pulmonary symptoms and fibrosis after treatment with Carrimycin. The specific is as follows: 
       FIG. 8  is CT images of the lungs of patient 1 before and after treating with Carrimycin. It can be seen from the figure that the pulmonary symptoms were significantly improved after 5 or 10 days of treatment with Carrimycin. 
       FIG. 9  shows the changes in CT images of the lungs of patient 2. (A) is the CT scanning on the first day of illness, (B) is the CT scanning on the 5th day of illness, and (C) is the CT scanning on the 6th day of illness Scanning image (the day of starting Carrimycin treatment), (D) is the CT scanning on the 8th day of illness; (E) is the CT scanning on the 11th day of illness. After continuing to administrate Carrimycin for treatment, the condition of the lungs improved. 
     It is shown in  FIG. 10  that the changes in the CT images of patient 3, specifically, the patient is female and 72 years old. After admission, she was treated with oxygen inhalation through a nasal cannula, and orally administrated 0.4 g of Carrimycin once a day. On the second day after admission, the patient&#39;s general condition was improved, coughing and dyspnea were significantly improved, and oxygen saturation was increased to 98%. Oxygen partial pressure was increased by 130 mmHg through blood gas analysis. Twice throat swabs were performed on the 3rd and 6th days after the treatment of Carrimycin, and the nucleic acid tests were all negative. It shown in CT image ( FIG. 10 ) that, on the 6th day of the illness course (1 day before taking Carrimycin), the markings of the bilateral lungs were increased, irregular ground-glass lesions were seen in the lower field of the right lung, and patchy shadows were scattered on the left side (shown by arrow A)). On the 9th day of the illness course (3 days after taking Carrimycin), the markings of the bilateral lungs were clear, and the irregular ground-glass lesions in the lower field of the right lung were obviously absorbed (shown by B arrow). On the 12th day of the illness course (5 days after taking Carrimycin), a small amount of fibrosis was formed in the right lung lesion (shown by C arrow). After continuing to administrate Carrimycin for treatment, the fibrosis condition was improved. 
     Experimental Example 3 Function of Medicine C in Inhibit Skin Fibrosis 
     1. Medicine C (using Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I) inhibits the expression of the main markers of fibrosis in skin fibroblasts CCC-ESF-1 induced by TGFβ1 at the mRNA level. 
     Method for TGFβ1 inducing skin fibroblasts CCC-ESF-1 and administrating Carrimycin and Isovalerylspiramycin I comprises: CCC-ESF-1 was cultured in DMEM, High Glucose, GlutaMAX™ (Gibco 10566016) culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, mixture of 1% penicillin and 1% streptomycin at 37 DEG C and 5% CO 2 , and was plated in a 6-well according to 3×10 5  cells per well. After culturing for 24 hours, the original culture medium in the 6-well plate was removed by a vacuum pump, and DMEM culture medium without 10% fetal bovine serum was added to be starvation culture for 24 hours. And then TGF-β1 (5 ng/ml) induction was added, and at the same time different concentration gradients of Carrimycin and Isovalerylspiramycin I were added. The concentrations were 20 μmol/L and 40 μmol/L. The following groups were set, control group (without adding TGF-β1 induction), TGF-β1 induction group (only TGF-β1 induction is added) and TGF-β1 induction administration group (both adding TGF-β1 induction and treating with Carrimycin or Isovalerylspiramycin I). 
     After culturing for 24 hours, the culture medium was discarded, and the Total RNA of LX-2 cells were extracted according to the operation steps of the TRIzol instructions. According to the operation steps of the instructions of Roche Transcriptor First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit, Total RNA of LX-2 was reversely transcribed into cDNA. The cDNA, sterile water, Roche FastStart Universal Probe Master (Rox) and ABI TaqMan probes (GAPDH, COL1A1, TGFB1, ACTA2, MMP2) were prepared into a 20 μl reaction system, and the ABI 7500 Fast Real-time PCR System was used for detection. GAPDH was used as an internal control to analyze the results. It is showed by the data, both Carrimycin and Isovalerylspiramycin I can significantly inhibit COL1A1, TGFB1, ACTA2, and MMP2 ( FIG. 11 ). Isovalerylspiramycin I was obviously toxic to CCC-ESF-1 cells at a concentration of 40 μmol/l.
