Tetrahydrocurcumin attenuates carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatic fibrogenesis by inhibiting the activation and autophagy of hepatic stellate cells
Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) is known to be the major metabolite of curcumin. The present study aimed to investigate the efficacy of THC and curcumin against hepatic fibrogenesis and the underlying responsible molecular mechanisms. Hepatic fibrogenesis was induced by intraperitoneal injection of CCl4 tw...
