Curcumin attenuates the effects of insulin on stimulating hepatic stellate cell activation by interrupting insulin signaling and attenuating oxidative stress
Hyperinsulinemia associated with type II diabetes mellitus is a risk factor for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and hepatic fibrosis. Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are the major effectors in collagen production during hepatic fibrogenesis. Elevated levels of insulin stimulate HSC activation. In...
