Targeting thrombospondin-2 retards liver fibrosis by inhibiting TLR4-FAK/TGF-β signaling

Targeting thrombospondin-2 retards liver fibrosis by inhibiting TLR4-FAK/TGF-β signaling

Background & Aims: Thrombospondin-2 (THBS2) expression is associated with liver fibrosis regardless of etiology. However, the role of THBS2 in the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis has yet to be elucidated. Methods: The in vivo effects of silencing Thbs2 in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) were ex...
