[Adiponectin inhibits oxidative stress and modulates TGF-b1 and COL-1 expression via the AMPK pathway in HSC-T6 cells].

Inhibition of oxidative stress is one of the mechanisms of the anti-fibrotic effects of adiponectin. Adiponectin can attenuate oxidative stress levels, resulting in down-regulation of TGFb1 and COL-1 expression through activation of the AMPK pathway.
