## Abstract ## Background/aims Transforming growth factor Ξ² (TGFΞ²1) is considered the key mediator in the process of liver fibrosis. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the activity of ribozymes against TGFΞ²1 in a cell‐free system and activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), and anti

In fibroblasts, thrombin induces collagen deposition through activation of a G-protein-coupled receptor, proteinase-activated receptor 1 (PAR(1)). In the current study, we examined whether PAR(1) antagonism inhibits hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation in vitro and whether it protects against fibr
