Metformin attenuates motility, contraction, and fibrogenic response of hepatic stellate cells in vivo and in vitro by activating AMP-activated protein kinase
AIM: To investigate the effect of metformin on activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and the possible signaling pathways involved. METHODS: A fibrotic mouse model was generated by intraperitoneal injection of carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) and subsequent treatment with or without metformin. The lev...
