Many liver sinusoidal endothelial cell (LSEC)-dependent processes, including drug-induced liver injury, ischemia-reperfusion injury, acute and chronic rejection, fibrosis, and the HELLP (hemolytic anemia, elevated liver enzymes, low platelet count) syndrome, may have a lobular distribution. Studies of the mechanism of this distribution would benefit from a reliable method to isolate LSEC popula...

Excessive ethanol intakes have been reported to be linked liver diseases such as hepatitis and cancerrelated of ethanol. can lead the accumulation reactive oxygen species(ROS) depletion glutathione (GSH) in liver. Ethanol-induced oxidative stress substantiallyincreases peroxidation lipid decreases GSH levels human hepatocyte animal models.Ethanol contributes sterol regulating element-binding pr...

Background & Aim: The human body has the liver as one of its largest organs. It serves as the major site for metabolism and excretion. Injury to the liver or impairment of its functions may complicate one’s health and therefore, constitutes one of the serious public health challenges. The ethanol seed extract of Citrus paradisi Macfad (CPE) was carried out to evaluate ...

With formaldehyde as the major source of endogenous N⁶-formyllysine protein adducts, we quantified endogenous and exogenous N⁶-formyllysine in the nasal epithelium of rats exposed by inhalation to 0.7, 2, 5.8, and 9.1 ppm [¹³C²H₂]-formaldehyde using liquid chromatography-coupled tandem mass spectrometry. Exogenous N⁶-formyllysine was detected in the nasal epithelium, with concentration-dependen...

Sonoelastography is a vibration Doppler technique for imaging the relative elasticity of tissues. Detectability of hard lesions of various sizes has previously been demonstrated in tissue phantoms by our group. Because real tissue differs from phantom material, the injection of formaldehyde in fresh liver tissue is being used as an in-vitro lesion model. Pieces of fresh calf liver were embedded...

Mammea africana Sabine (Guttiferae) stembark, a common plant, traditionally used to treat various diseases and ailments was evaluated for hepatoprotective potentials against paracetamol- induced liver injury in rats. The hepatoprotective effect of the stembark extract (30-90 mg/kg) was evaluated by the assay of liver function parameters: total and direct bilirubin, serum protein and albumin, to...

We investigated the effect of an albumin infusion on enzyme activity, expression level cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1), and oxidative stress in serum liver streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. The STZ treatment enhanced alanine aminotransferase aspartate activities rat compared with those untreated Treatment elevated catalytic activity CYP2E1, stress, decreased reducing potentials liver, su...

• A MIF antagonist, ISO-1, protected mice from acute acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury. The effect of ISO-1 may be involved in the recover GSH depletion and inhibition up-regulation RIPK3 kinase following oxidative stress by APAP liver. As an additional on APAP-liver injury, inhibit development further expansion excessive neutrophilic responses. Overdose use (APAP) often occurs a severe...

BACKGROUND Lamivudine is a nucleoside analogue antiretroviral drug, known for its low toxicity at clinically prescribed dose. However, the toxicity or mechanism of toxicity and target tissue effects during prolonged administration of higher doses were hardly given sufficient laboratory attention. AIM The present work was designed to investigate the biochemical and histopathological changes in...
