Research Article: Combined Amphiphilic Silybin Meglumine Nanosuspension Effective Against Hepatic Fibrosis in Mice Model
Introduction:
Hepatic fibrosis is a defining feature of almost all types of chronic liver disease and its development has been associated with the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). , Under pathological conditions, HSCs become activated and differentiate into myofibroblast-like cells that deposit extracellular matrix (ECM), , promoting hepatic fibrosis. Although HSCs are protected in the Disse space, small drug particles (< nm) can reach them by passing through the holes on the surface of adjacent liver sinusoidal…
