TG101348, a selective JAK2 antagonist, ameliorates hepatic fibrogenesis
Hepatic fibrosis, characterized by an excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation, leading to scar-tissue formation is a growing health problem worldwide. Hepatocellular damage due to liver injury triggers inflammation and transdifferentiation of quiescent hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) into proliferative, contractile, and ECM-producing myofibroblasts. Involvement of the Janus kinase (JAK)-2 pathway in the pathogenesis of fibrosis has been reported earlier. However, in this study, we have investigated the effect of selective JAK2 antagonist TG101348 in fibroblasts and inflammatory macrophages and Topics: 3T3 Cells; Animals; Carbon Tetrachloride; Cell Line, Tumor; Chemical and Drug Induced Liver Injury; Disease Models, Animal; Hep G2 Cells; Humans; Liver; Liver Cirrhosis; Macrophages; Male; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Myofibroblasts; Nitrogen Oxides; Pyrrolidines; Signal Transduction; Sulfonamides; Transforming Growth Factor beta | 2019 |
