“…These include induction of heparanase and VEGF expression (this communication); stimulation of MMP-3 and MMP-13; downregulation of MMP-2 and influence on HSC proliferation; 28 blockade of collagen type I synthesis (this communication and Granot et al 16 ); and the ability to enhance regenerative response. 20 Although it is known that HF inhibits TGF-b expression, the main fibrogenic cytokine, the mechanism of action of HF is still to be elucidated. HF has been marketed for years for use in animals raised for human consumption.…”

“…[16][17][18][19] In the past we have demonstrated the beneficial effect of HF on fibrotic rat liver regeneration following PHx. 20 In the present study, we investigated whether the beneficial effects of HF on thioacetamide (TAA)-induced liver fibrosis stem from its already known antifibrogenic effects and its capacity to enhance regeneration via production of heparanase. We showed a direct correlation between the fluctuations of heparanase and VEGF during accumulation and resolution of scar tissue.…”

“…A fibrose hepática e os nódulos regenerativos pela cirrose induzida por TAA são mais proeminentes macroscopicamente e o padrão histológico é mais próximo ao da cirrose humana (Laleman et al, 2006). Apesar da fibrose induzida com TAA se desenvolver mais lentamente do que com CCl 4 , o parênquima se torna completamente dividido por septos fibrosos bem demarcados (Shea e Manseau, 1968;Al-Bader et al, 2000;Spira et al, 2002). Este desenvolvimento tardio é visto como mais uma das características da TAA em reproduzir adequadamente o estado crônico da doença hepática (Masumi et al, 1999).…”

“…A fibrose hepática e os nódulos regenerativos são mais proeminentes e o padrão histológico é mais próximo ao da cirrose humana (LALEMAN et al, 2006). A lenta deposição de colágeno tem sido apontada como uma desvantagem no uso da TAA em relação ao CCl 4 , e no geral, a cirrose se estabelece a partir da 10ª semana de tratamento (AL-BADER et al, 2000;SPIRA et al, 2002). O desenvolvimento tardio da doença é visto como mais uma das características da TAA em reproduzir adequadamente o estado crônico da doença hepática (MASUMI et al, 1999).…”
