A novel anti-fibrotic agent

Activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) play a major role in the development of liver fibrosis and their activation is the target of many anti-fibrotic therapies. However, these approaches have remained ineffective mainly due to an incomplete understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying HSC activation and the lack of target specificity of candidate drugs.
