Celecoxib Ameliorates Portal Hypertension of the Cirrhotic Rats through the Dual Inhibitory Effects on the Intrahepatic Fibrosis and Angiogenesis

BACKGROUND: Increased intra-hepatic resistance to portal blood flow is the primary factor leading to portal hypertension in cirrhosis. Up-regulated expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in the cirrhotic liver might be a potential target to ameliorate portal hypertension. OBJECTIVE: To verify the ef...
