    • Praziquantel has been used for the treatment of diseases caused by infection with various parasites. Praziquantel treatment in Opisthorchis viverrini-infected patients reduces the hepatobiliary fibrosis due to tissue resorption, however, some fibroses are irreversible. To clarify the effect of praziquantel treatment on hepatobiliary fibrosis, we examined the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in relation to fibrolysis on praziquantel-treated hamsters after O. viverrini acute… CONTINUE READING
