1 To further explore the mechanism of rosiglitazone action, we found that rosiglitazone can significantly increase the expression of PPAR gamma [E: -18.212 +/- (-3.909) vs B: -27.315 +/- (-6.348) and C: -25.647 +/- (-5.694), P < 0.05], reduce the NF-kappaB binding activity (E: 88.89 +/- 19.34 vs B: 141.11 +/- 15.37, C: 112.89 +/- 20.17 and D: 108.89 +/- 20.47, P < 0.05), and lower the serum level of TNF-alpha (E: 1.613 +/- 0.420 ng/mL vs B: 2.892 +/- 0.587 ng/mL, C: 2.346 +/- 0.371 ng/mL and D: 2.160 +/- 0.395 ng/mL, P < 0.05) and IL-6 (E: 0.106 +/- 0.021 ng/mL vs B: 0.140 +/- 0.031 ng/mL and C: 0.137 +/- 0.027 ng/mL, P < 0.05) in mice with liver fibrosis.
