Prediction and mechanistic analysis of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) based on chemical structure [PDF]
Background Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a major safety concern characterized by a complex and diverse pathogenesis. In order to identify DILI early in drug development, a better understanding of the injury and models with better predictivity are ...

Hepatic microRNA profiles offer predictive and mechanistic insights after exposure to genotoxic and epigenetic hepatocarcinogens. [PDF]
In recent years, accumulating evidence supports the importance of microRNAs in liver physiology and disease; however, few studies have examined the involvement of these noncoding genes in chemical hepatocarcinogenesis.

Cytoprotective effects of melatonin against amitriptyline-induced toxicity in isolated rat hepatocytes [PDF]
Purpose: Amitriptyline, one of the commonly used tricyclic antidepressants, caused rare but severe hepatotoxicity in patients who received it continuously. Previous findings showed that the intermediate metabolites of amitriptyline produced by CYP450 are

A novel technique for selective NF-kappa B inhibition in Kupffer cells: contrary effects in fulminant hepatitis and ischaemia-reperfusion. [PDF]
Background and aims: The transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) has risen as a promising target for anti-inflammatory therapeutics. In the liver, however, NFkB inhibition mediates both damaging and protective effects.

Inhibition of Drug‐Induced Liver Injury in Mice Using a Positively Charged Peptide That Binds DNA
Hepatic cell death occurs in response to diverse stimuli such as chemical and physical damage. The exposure of intracellular contents such as DNA during necrosis induces a severe inflammatory response that has yet to be fully explored therapeutically ...

The bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine, initially developed to provide protection against TB, also protects against leprosy; and the magnitude of this effect varies. Previous meta-analyses did not provide a summary estimate of the efficacy due to the

Introduction and Objectives: Although hepatotoxicity accounts for 10% of adverse drug reactions, it remains poorly understood and underreported. This study aimed to summarize case reports of herb- and drug-induced liver injury in Brazil.

The effect of different types of hepatic injury on the estrogen and androgen receptor activity of liver [PDF]
Mammalian liver contains receptors for both estrogens and androgens. Hepatic regeneration after partial hepatectomy in male rats is associated with a loss of certain male-specific hepatic characteristics.
