However, knowledge about whether modulating LSEC activation can alleviate liver inflammation is scarce. This study aimed to establish and validate an animal model mimicking LSEC dysfunction observed in patients with elevated plasma levels of TNFalpha, and explore whether vasoactive flavonoid diosmetin could serve as a therapeutic agent for liver … Show more
