Targeted Delivery of Hyaluronic Acid Nanomicelles to Hepatic Stellate Cells in Hepatic Fibrosis Rats

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2020
Hepatic fibrosis is one kind of liver diseases with a high mortality rate and incidence. The activation and proliferation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) is the most fundamental reason of hepatic fibrosis.

Advances on Nanomedicines for Diagnosis and Theranostics of Hepatic Fibrosis

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, 2021
Hepatic fibrosis is induced by chronic hepatic injuries before it turns into hepatic cirrhosis/carcinoma. It is characterized by the formation of collagen and other extracellular matrices around damaged hepatic tissues; consequently, the normal ...

DNMT3a-mediated methylation of TCF21/hnRNPA1 aggravates hepatic fibrosis by regulating the NF-κB signaling pathway

Pharmacological Research, 2023
Hepatic fibrosis is caused by liver damage as a consequence of wound healing response. Recent studies have shown that hepatic fibrosis could be effectively reversed, partly through regression of activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs).

Curdione and Schisandrin C Synergistically Reverse Hepatic Fibrosis via Modulating the TGF-β Pathway and Inhibiting Oxidative Stress

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Hepatic fibrosis is the final pathway of several chronic liver diseases, which is characterized by the accumulation of extracellular matrix due to chronic hepatocyte damage. Activation of hepatic stellate cells and oxidative stress (OS) play an important
