During the course of liver fibrogenesis, hepatic stellate cell (HSC) proliferation as well as subsequent synthesis of excessive extracellular matrix components is known to be the central events. Thus, factors that could limit HSC proliferation are potential anti-fibrotic agents. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a nutritional component derived from Brassica family vegetables, on the proliferation of cultured HSC and to clarify the underline molecular mechanism. HSC-T6, an activated rat HSC line, was treated with I3C (50, 100 and 200 mu M) for 24 h. The results indicated that I3C can significantly inhibit HSC proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner with or without platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) stimulation (P
