Total triterpenoid from Prunella vulgaris L prevents fibrosis in CC14 induced hepatic fibrosis in the rat and its mechanism research on PDGF-induced rat hepatic steilate cell

摘要

Aims： Total triterpenoid from Prunella vulgaris L. （TTP）, known as medicinehad, had a preventive effect against hepatic steatosis in our previous was to evaluate whether TTP could improve liver fibrosis nism of action of TTP on hepatic stellate growth factor （PDGF）. a traditional Chinese study. Our objective in rats and to investigate the mecha- cell （HSC） proliferation induced by platelet-derivedgrowth factor （PDGF）.
