Core Tip	In the present study, we have demonstrated for the first time that Ad-myr-HA-Akt virus was a useful tool to prevent carbon tetrachloride-induced cirrhosis in rat model. Our data obtained at different levels, from function to histological changes, apoptosis rate of hepatocytes, activation of hepatic stellate cells, deposition of collagen, portal vein pressure and NO level, which were all consistently and collectively supported the hypothesis that introduction of Ad-myr-HA-Akt virus inhibits the development of cirrhosis.
