## Abstract Previous studies have demonstrated that transforming growth factor‐β3 (TGF‐β3) protected liver against fibrosis in vivo and vitro, but its regulation is poorly understood. In addition, the cAMP‐responsive element (CRE) in TGF‐β3 promoter is recognized as an important regulatory site for

## Abstract ## Background Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a possible key determinant of progressive fibrosis. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) is a powerful tool for silencing gene expression post‐transcriptionally. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine whether synthetic siRNA tar

Cultured hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), the cell type primarily involved in the progression of liver fibrosis, secrete insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and IGF binding protein (IGFBP) activity. IGF-I exerts a mitogenic effect on HSCs, thus potentially contributing to the fibrogenic process in an
