Glutathione peroxidase 3 is a protective factor against acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity in vivo and in vitro

Acetaminophen (APAP) is a widely available antipyretic and analgesic; however, overdose of the drug inflicts severe damage to the liver. It is well established that the hepatotoxicity of APAP is initiated by formation of a reactive metabolite, N‑acetyl‑p‑benzoquinone imine (NAPQI), which can be detoxified by conjugation with reduced glutathione (GSH), a typical antioxidant. We recently found th...

Glutathione reductase is inhibited by acetaminophen-glutathione conjugate in vitro.

The aim of the present work was to investigate a new mechanism likely contributing to the toxic action of acetaminophen, especially to explore the possible inhibition of glutathione reductase through an acetaminophen-glutathione conjugate (APAP-SG). APAP-SG conjugate was synthesized by organic synthesis and purified by column chromatography. The inhibitory effect of the conjugate on two types o...

Glutathione Reductase Is Inhibited by Acetaminophen-glutathione Conjugate in vitro: Possibly an Important Mechanism in Acetaminophen Liver Injury

Short title: Inhibition of glutathione reductase by APAP-SG in vitro 2 Summary Acetaminophen is one of commonly used analgesics and antipyretics. It is a safe drug at therapeutic doses but in the overdose, it causes liver injury which may lead to acute liver failure. The aim of the present work was to investigate a new mechanism contributing to the toxic acting of acetaminophen especially to ex...

Effect of orally administered reduced- and oxidized-glutathione against acetaminophen-induced liver injury in rats.

To investigate the effects of orally administered reduced-glutathione (GSH) and oxidized-glutathione (GSSG) on liver GSH repletion and liver injury, acetaminophen (AAP) highly loaded rats were used. Orally administered GSH, dependent on dosage, indicated a protective effect against AAP-induced hepatotoxicity. This effect was associated with a recovery of liver GSH levels. Orally administered GS...

Cytoprotective effects of silafibrate, a newly-synthesised siliconated derivative of clofibrate, against acetaminophen-induced toxicity in isolated rat hepatocytes.

Acetaminophen (N-acetyl para amino phenol, APAP) is a widely used antipyretic and analgesic drug responsible for various drug-induced liver injuries. This study evaluated APAP-induced toxicity in isolated rat hepatocytes alongside the protective effects of silafibrate and N-acetyl cysteine (NAC). Hepatocytes were isolated from male Sprague-Dawley rats by collagenase enzyme perfusion via the por...
