Bruceine A attenuates fibrogenesis and inflammation through NR2F2-regulated HMGB1 inflammatory signaling cascades in hepatic fibrosis.

This investigation explored the hepatoprotective capabilities of Bruceine A (BA) and its underlying mechanisms in mitigating hepatic fibrosis. Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and mouse primary hepatocytes were treated with TGF-β and subsequently exposed to BA. To assess the effects of BA on the NR2F2-HMGB1 signaling cascade, these cells underwent transfection with a siRNA vector targeting NR2F2.

Specnuezhenide ameliorates hepatic fibrosis via regulating SIRT6-Mediated inflammatory signaling cascades.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Ligustrum lucidum W.T. Aiton is a traditional Chinese medicine that has long been used with high hepatoprotective therapeutic and condition value.

Regulation of the Nur77-P2X7r Signaling Pathway by Nodakenin: A Potential Protective Function against Alcoholic Liver Disease.

Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is the main factor that induces liver-related death worldwide and represents a common chronic hepatopathy resulting from binge or chronic alcohol consumption. This work focused on revealing the role and molecular mechanism of nodakenin (NK) in ALD associated with hepatic inflammation and lipid metabolism through the regulation of Nur77-P2X7r signaling. In this study, an ALD model was constructed through chronic feeding of Lieber-DeCarli control solution with or without NK treatment.

Regulation of Nur77-TLR4/MyD88 signaling pathway is required for Ginsenoside Rc ameliorates hepatic fibrosis regression by deactivating hepatic stellate cells.

HSCs (hepatic stellate cells) contribute to the excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition plays a key role in the progression of hepatic fibrosis. The present study focused on the hepatoprotective effect of Ginsenoside Rc (Rc), one of the protopanaxadiol type ginsenoside, which has contributed to reverse activated HSCs to improve hepatic fibrosis via regulating Nur77-TLR4/MyD88 signaling pathway. We established the hepatic fibrosis model by intraperitoneal injection of carbon tetrachloride (CCl).

Ginsenoside Rd, a natural production for attenuating fibrogenesis and inflammation in hepatic fibrosis by regulating the ERRα-mediated P2X7r pathway.

Ginseng, when used as a food and nutritional supplement, has the ability to regulate human immunity. Here, the potential anti-hepatic fibrosis effect of ginsenoside Rd (Rd), one of the protopanaxadiol types of ginsenoside, was investigated. We established a hepatic fibrosis model using intraperitoneal injection of thioacetamide (TAA) for five weeks in mice.
