BS inhibited the expressions of fibrosis-related proteins in vivo. (A) The protein levels of α-SMA, Col I, and Col III as measured by Western blot analysis. (B) The protein expressions of TGF-β1, p-Smad2, Smad2, p-Smad3, and Smad3 as measured by Western blot analysis. (C) The protein expressions of TrxR, NF-κB p-p65, and p65 as measured by Western blot analysis. Data were shown as mean ± SD, n ≥ 3 and analyzed with the one-way ANOVA. **p < 0.01 in the model group versus the control group. # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01, Si, BSL, BSM, and BSH groups versus the model group.
