Tetrathiomolybdate Protects Against Liver Injury from Acetaminophen in Mice
Acetaminophen toxicity has become a leading cause of both accidental and intentional poisoning, and is now the most common cause of acute liver failure in the United States. Acetaminophen poisoning is thus a significant burden on the health care system and a cause of considerable morbidity and mortality. Tetrathiomolybdate is a fast acting anticopper drug developed for Wilson’s disease. However...
متن کاملAugmenter of liver regeneration protects against carbon tetrachloride-induced liver injury by promoting autophagy in mice
BACKGROUND Augmenter of liver regeneration (ALR) exerts strong hepatoprotective properties in various animal models of liver injury, but its protective mechanisms have not yet been explored. Autophagy is a recently recognized rudimentary cellular response to inflammation and injury. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that ALR may protect against acute liver injury through the auto...
متن کاملVinpocetine protects liver against ischemia-reperfusion injury.
Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is a clinical problem that leads to cellular damage and organ dysfunction mediated mainly via production of reactive oxygen species and inflammatory cytokines. Vinpocetine has long been used in cerebrovascular disorders. This study aimed to explore the protective effect of vinpocetine in IR injury to the liver. Ischemia was induced in rats by clamping th...
متن کاملMitochondrial Targeted Endonuclease III DNA Repair Enzyme Protects against Ventilator Induced Lung Injury in Mice
The mitochondrial targeted DNA repair enzyme, 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1, was previously reported to protect against mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage and ventilator induced lung injury (VILI). In the present study we determined whether mitochondrial targeted endonuclease III (EndoIII) which cleaves oxidized pyrimidines rather than purines from damaged DNA would also protect the lung. Minima...
متن کاملmiR-150 Deficiency Protects against FAS-Induced Acute Liver Injury in Mice through Regulation of AKT
Although miR-150 is implicated in the regulation of immune cell differentiation and activation, it remains unknown whether miR-150 is involved in liver biology and disease. This study was performed to explore the potential role of miR-150 in LPS/D-GalN and Fas-induced liver injuries by using wild type and miR-150 knockout (KO) mice. Whereas knockout of miR-150 did not significantly alter LPS/D-...
