Effects of DSF on CCl4-induced fibrosis in rats. A Representative images of liver tissues stained with Sirius Red, α-SMA and CD45. Collagen deposition was indicated by the red strands. Statistical analysis of Sirus red-positive collagen per field was shown on the right panel. Scale bar, 50 μm. B Relative mRNA expression of pro-fibrogenic markers in liver, measured using qPCR. C Serum ALT and AST levels in DSF-treated and control group (n = 5). Data were expressed as means ± SD. *, P < 0.05
