Valproate (VPA)-Associated Hepatotoxicity
Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 1993 The metabolic pattern of VPA in 170 epileptic patients without symptoms or signs of hepatic side effects was compared to that in 11 patients with early symptoms and signs of hepatotoxicity and in 5 children with fulminant liver failure.

Anti-oxidant protective effects of Cassia alata in rats exposed to carbon tetrachloride
Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2006 The protective activity of Cassia alata against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) – induced hepatotoxicity in rats was assessed. Crude extracts of petals of the plant in 0.5% ethanol were administered by intubation for 14 days prior to injection of 0.5ml Kg-1 ...

Increasing Microcystis cell density enhances microcystin synthesis: a mesocosm study [PDF]
, 2012 An experimental protocol using mesocosms was established to study the effect of Microcystis sp. cell abundance on microcystin production. The mesocosms (55 L) were set up in a shallow eutrophic lake and received either no (control), low (to simulate a ...

Oxidative stress biomarkers in Clarias gariepinus (Burchel, 1822) exposed to Microcystin-LR
Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2017 Stress levels inflicted by microcystin-LR extracted from Microcystis aeruginosa were assessed by estimating the effects on the oxidative stress biomarkers in the liver, muscle and gill tissues of Clarias gariepinus. Microcystin-LR was administered to the
