Role of liver progenitors in acute liver injury
Acute liver failure (ALF) results from the acute and rapid loss of hepatocyte function and frequently exhibits a fulminant course, characterized by high mortality in the absence of immediate state-of-the-art intensive care and/or emergency liver transplantation (ELT). The role of hepatocyte-mediated liver regeneration during acute and chronic liver injury has been extensively investigated, and ...
متن کاملThe acute liver injury in rat caused by gold nanoparticles
Objective(s): Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) command a great deal of attention for biomedical applications nowadays. The data about the degree of toxicity and the accumulation of gold nanoparticles in-vivo is not enough to judge. Materials and Methods: A total of 32 healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 including: three GNP-treated and one control group. Groups 1, 2 and 3 receive...
متن کاملAcute liver injury.
During metabolism in the liver the concentration of a drug or its metabolic products may be locally increased. This provides a theoretical basis for the large and ever-increasing number of reports of acute liver damage following drug therapy. If a drug or its metabolic product is a cellular poison we may expect a direct hepatotoxic reaction with a constant relationship to the level of drug in t...
متن کاملThe Role of Chemokines in Acute Liver Injury
Chemokines are small molecular weight proteins primarily known to drive migration of immune cell populations. In both acute and chronic liver injury, hepatic chemokine expression is induced resulting in inflammatory cell infiltration, angiogenesis, and cell activation and survival. During acute injury, massive parenchymal cell death due to apoptosis and/or necrosis leads to chemokine production...
متن کاملLiver Autophagy in Anorexia Nervosa and Acute Liver Injury
Autophagy, a lysosomal catabolic pathway for long-lived proteins and damaged organelles, is crucial for cell homeostasis, and survival under stressful conditions. During starvation, autophagy is induced in numerous organisms ranging from yeast to mammals, and promotes survival by supplying nutrients and energy. In the early neonatal period, when transplacental nutrients supply is interrupted, s...
