Ursolic Acid ameliorates liver injury and suppresses hepatic fibrogenesis in rats with CCl4-induced liver fibrosis. (A) Liver sections were stained with H&E and Picro-Sirius red, and representative images are shown. (B) Morphological changes in the liver sections quantified using the Metavir score. (C) The Sirius red stained area was quantified by Image-Pro Plus 6.0. (D) The protein levels of collagen I and α-SMA in liver tissues were analyzed by Western blot assays. (E) The level of hydroxyproline was measured by chemical oxidation. Original magnification: 100×. The data are presented as the means ± SD (n = 8 per group). ^*P < 0.05; ^∗∗P < 0.01 versus the control group and ^##P < 0.01 versus the CCl4 model group.
