Inhibitory effect of a soluble transforming growth factor β type II receptor on the activation of rat hepatic stellate cells in primary culture
Background/Aims: Oxidative stress, including the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that acts as a signaling mediator for transforming growth factor (TGF)-β, plays a key role in hepatic fibrosis. Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) produce and respond to TGF-β in an autocrine manner with increase...
