The data obtained from HF-treated rats revealed that HF administration attenuated level of the prominent profibrogenic cytokine TGF-β1 (Figure 6B) indicating the inhibitory activity of HF to the proliferative activity of HSCs which might be confirmed by the less collagen deposition in the liver tissues of animals treated with HF ( Figure 4). This evidence concerns the gene TGFB1 and hydrops fetalis.
