Hepatic stellate cell activation is a main feature of liver fibrogenesis. We have previously shown that phagocytosis of apoptotic bodies by stellate cells induces procollagen ␣1 (I) and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-␤) expression in vitro.

Leptin, a profibrogenic cytokine, plays an important role in the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. Leptin also regulates immune responses, including macrophage phagocytic activity.

Hypocrellin A (HA), a lipid-soluble peryloquinone derivative extracted from the fungus Hypocrellu bambusne, has been proved to be effective in treating many diseases. In this study, we have examined the photodynamic effects of HA on three different human malignant epithelioid cell lines, i.e., HIC,
