Activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) by connective tissue growth factor (CCN2) is involved in sustaining the survival of primary rat hepatic stellate cells

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Connective tissue growth factor (CCN2) is a matricellular protein that plays a role in hepatic stellate cell (HSC)-mediated fibrogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the regulation by CCN2 of cell survival pathways in primary HSC. METHODS: Primary HSC were obtained by i...
