As expected, rhLOXL2 dose-dependently induce oxidation of collagen with PXS-5153A dose-dependently impeding collagen oxidation. Therapeutic treatment of PXS-5153A substantially reduces immature crosslink formation compared with the CCl₄ treated animals. Mature crosslink formation is also reduced by PXS-5153A treatment. All groups with therapeutic treatment of PXS-5153A show a significant reduction in DHLNL formation compared to the CCl₄ treated animals. Treatment with PXS-5153A causes a significantly reduction in HYP compared to the CCl₄ group. In addition, the amount of fibrillar collagen is markedly augmented by disease as seen by the 2.2-fold increase in percentage coverage area by Picrosirius red staining, which is reduced by PXS-5153A^[1].
