Figure 3. Reduced markers of HSC activation following HSC depletion.

Figure 3

(A) Reduced α-SMA positive cells in TG mice undergoing HSC depletion as assessed by immunohistochemistry. (B) Relative mRNA expression genes associated with HSC activation (β-PDGFR and collagen I). There is a significant reduction of these markers in TG mice with HSC depletion. (C) Relative mRNA expression of CXCR4 is reduced in TG mice undergoing HSC depletion.
