The effects of casticin and myricetin on liver damage induced by methotrexate in rats
Objective(s): In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic effects of casticin and myricetin on liver damage induced by methotrexate in rats.Materials and Methods: Thirty-six male rats were used for the study and divided into 6 groups: control, methotrexate, casticin, myricetin, casticin+methotrexate, and myricetin+methotrexate.

متن کاملLiver Toxicity in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Treated With Methotrexate
Background:Methotrexate (MTX) is one of the most commonly used disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) which can be associated with toxic effects on different organs. This study was designed to investigate the hepatotoxic effects in RA patients treated with MTX. Methods: In this cross-sectional observational study, RA patients who received standard d...
متن کاملSignificance of liver biopsy for the evaluation of methotrexate-induced liver damage in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
It is well recognized that long-term administration of methotrexate (MTX) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can induce liver fibrosis via a steatohepatitis-like inflammatory process. Several non-invasive tests have been investigated as alternatives to liver biopsy, which is, however, still recognized as a final diagnostic modality to detect the MTX-induced liver damage. To clarify whet...
