Summary: This study aimed to elucidate the multitarget mechanisms of Phyllanthus emblica (PE) in treating liver fibrosis through proteomics analysis. The low-molecular-weight fraction of PE was found to have significant anti-liver fibrosis activity. Proteomics analysis identified potential targets, including COL1A2, ITGAV, TLR2, ACE, and PDGFRB, for PE treatment of liver fibrosis.
