Abstract
Fibrosis accompanies the wound-healing response to chronic liver injury and is characterized by excessive hepatic collagen accumulation dominated by collagen type I that often progresses to cirrhosis. Here we present ample in-vivo evidence of an up to 90% suppression of procollagen α1(I) expression, a reduction of septa formation and a 40–60% decrease of collagen deposition in mice with progressive and advanced liver fibrosis, that received...
