However, TIMP1 expression increased significantly during stimulation, exhibiting a tolerance/resistance phenotype, which was associated with TGF-β/Erk activation in macrophages. However, MMP levels did not increase due to endotoxin tolerance, which ultimately led to MMP/TIMP imbalance and influenced the deposition of collagen I.Conclusion. Increased LPS stimulation of macrophage during HCV antigen-induced endotoxin cross-tolerance contributes to MMP/TIMP1 imbalance and collagen I deposition.Noroviruses are recognized as the major caus
