Fig. 6From: RETRACTED ARTICLE: Xia-yu-xue decoction (XYXD) reduces carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver fibrosis through inhibition hepatic stellate cell activation by targeting NF-κB and TGF-β1 signaling pathwaysThe effect of XYXD on full activated HSC. GFP-Col-HSC cells were plated and cultured in 6-well plates for 2 h, then treated with XYXD (5 μg/ml and 25 μg/ml) for 36 h followed by fluorescent microscopy(×100, n = 3). Representative pictures are shown (a). α-SMA (b), TIMP1 (c), and PPARγ (d) were measure by real-time PCR analysis. The data represented the mean ± SD, #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01, vs vehicle. A representative result is shown. Similar results were obtained in three independent experimentsBack to article page
