Abstract
The main pathological feature of hepatic fibrosis is extracellular matrix deposition. The fibrinolysis system plays an important role in extracellular matrix deposition in liver fibrosis. This review aims to elucidate the role of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, an important component of the fibrinolysis system, in the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis.
