Hepatic stellate cells are considered to be liver-specific pericytes that play a key role in liver fibrosis. Because these cells express desmin and smooth muscle alpha-actin, they were assumed to be of myogenic origin. This hypothesis became doubtful when it was reported that stellate cells also exp
