Capsaicin and sulforaphane prevent experimental liver fibrosis via upregulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma and nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2

Capsaicin (CPS) and sulforaphane (SFN) have shown anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory and antifibrogenic properties. The molecular mechanisms describing how these food compounds act remain unclear. This study was aimed at evaluating the molecular mechanisms of CPS and SFN on the hepatoprotective ef...
