Schematic diagram showing the mechanisms and cellular events of OFD and the anti-fibrotic potential of P. ginseng. After receiving repeated and various stimuli, complex cellular events associated with fibrosis will occur in different organs. Activation of myofibroblasts from multiple sources will result in the abnormal deposition of extracellular matrix, indicating the initial formation of fibrosis. However, P. ginseng provides the possibility for the regression of fibrosis
