A schematic overview showing the strategy for generating chimera mice with EGFP+ BMSC using anti-CD146 microbeads, followed by feeding an MCDHF diet to induce liver fibrosis is given in Figure 3A. A co-localization was observed between NG2+ and EGFP+ cells in the fibrotic liver (Figure 3B). Here, CSPG4 is linked to Hepatic fibrosis.
