In LX-2 cells and mouse pHSCs, PPZ (100-300 μM) dose-dependently suppressed the levels of fibrogenic markers. We conducted transcriptome analysis and subsequent validation in PPZ-treated LX-2 cells, and revealed that PPZ inhibited the expression of Yes-associated protein (YAP) and its downstream targets such as CTGF, ID1, survivin, CYR61, and GLI2. Using YAP overexpression and silencing, we demonstrated that PPZ downregulated hepatic fibrogenic gene expression via YAP. Furthermore, we showed that PPZ promoted the proteasome-dependent
