“…It has been shown to reduce the production of tumour necrosis factor (TNF), downregulate TGF-β, suppress the production of platelet-activating factors, and inhibit the action of platelet-activating factor on neutrophils ( 28 ). Eslahi et al ( 29 ) demonstrated how PTX diminished the formation of collagen bundles and the number of fibroblasts. PTX has also been demonstrated to reduce blood viscosity thus improving circulation; this increase in microcirculation may also play a role in the prevention or management of fibrosis ( 30 ).…”

“…The total number of fibroblasts or myocytes was estimated by multiplying the numerical density by V(cavernous bodies) [Figure 4 b]. 19 Fibroblasts were recognized by their specific criteria (having plentiful and irregularly branched cytoplasms, a large ovoid euchromatic nucleus, and a prominent nucleolus). Smooth muscle cells were also recognized by their spindle shape and single central nucleus.…”
