Both MAPK and STAT3 signal transduction pathways are necessary for IL-6-dependent hepatic stellate cells activation

BACKGROUND: During liver injury, hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) can undergo activation and transform into alpha-smooth muscle actin (αSMA)-expressing contractile myofibroblast-like cells, leading to deposition of excessive scar matrix. We have recently demonstrated that depletion of adenosine deamina...
