MicroRNA-30a Suppresses the Activation of Hepatic Stellate Cells by Inhibiting Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition

Background/Aims: The activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) is considered as a pivotal event in liver fibrosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process has been reported to be involved in HSC activation. It is known that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a pro-fibrotic or anti-fibrotic role in...
