Descriptions
The stellate cell plays a central role in liver fibrosis in human liver diseases as well as in experimantal animal models. Direct prevention of liver fibrosis by a newly synthesized proly 4-hydroxylase inhibitor (HOE 077) reduced the number of preneoplastic lesions in rat liver. Fibrosupperession may limit the development of hepatic neoplasms.
