[The histopathological staging and collagen assessment for fibrosis showed that the cocktail PDDV presented an obvious down-regulation effect on hepatic fibrosis caused by chronic S. japonicum infection (P<0.05), and IFN-gamma, IL-4 and IL-13 mRNAs in liver detected by RT-PCR also showed that the cocktail PDDV represented the ability to up-regulate Th1-type responses, which paralleled with a decrease expression of alpha-SMA (P<0.05) and the up-regulated MMP9/TIMP1 balance (P<0.05) when compared to the control groups.].
