We found that DMN administration for 4 weeks produced molecular and pathological manifestations of liver fibrosis, that is, it increased the expressions of collagen type I, alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), and decreased peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) expression. The gene discussed is PPARG; the disease is Hepatic fibrosis.
