Vitamin D supplementation improves serum markers associated with hepatic fibrogenesis in chronic hepatitis C patients: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study
Abstract Hepatic fibrosis is the net accumulation of matrix tissue components which controlled by pro-fibrolytic enzymes, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and pro-fibrotic cytokine, TGF-β1, and enzymes, tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs). Vitamin D (VD) supplementation has been shown to reverse thes...
