Dihydroartemisinin inhibits the activation and proliferation of hepatic stellate cells by regulating miR‑29b‑3p.

Liver fibrosis is an early pathological feature of hepatic diseases. Hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation and disordered proliferation are associated with liver fibrosis. The present study identified significant differences in the expression levels of microRNA (miRNA/miR)‑29b‑3p in clinical samples and multiple miRNA databases.
