Ficus hirta Vahl. ameliorates liver fibrosis by triggering hepatic stellate cell ferroptosis through GSH/GPX4 pathway

Abstract

Ficus hirta Vahl triggered the ferroptosis of hepatic stellate cell by regulating the GSH/GPX4 pathway, thereby alleviating liver fibrosis in mice. Moreover, apigenin is a key compound in Ficus hirta Vahl responsible for the effective treatment of liver fibrosis.
