C23 ameliorates carbon tetrachloride-induced liver fibrosis in mice

Figure 2 C23 inhibits carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatic collagen synthesis. A: Sirius red staining was used to examine changes in collagen fiber expression in each group; B: Masson staining was used to examine changes in collagen fiber expression in each group. The location of the collagen fibers was visualized with image-pro plus (IPP); C: The IPP concentration was used to calculate the Sirius red-positive area of each group; D: The IPP concentration was used to calculate the Masson positive area of each group. ^aP < 0.05, ^bP < 0.01 vs carbon tetrachloride. CCl4: Carbon tetrachloride.
