Hepatic toxicity biomarkers
The liver is the largest internal organ in the human body and it is the main organ for the metabolism and detoxification of drugs and environmental chemicals (Klaassen, 2007). Other main functions of the liver include glucose storage and synthesis, decomposition of red blood cells, plasma protein synthesis, hormone production, and bile formation. Anatomically, the liver lies slightly below the ...
متن کاملToxicity Comparative of CdSe:ZnS Quantum Dots on Testis, and Liver in Adult Mice
Quantum dots are new types of fluorescent materials for biological labeling. As a result, QDs toxicity study is an essential requirement for future clinical applications. Therefore, the cytotoxic CdSe:ZnS quantum dots effects on some organs in mice are presented in this study. In this work, 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg doses of CdSe:ZnS quantum dots were injected to 32 adult male mice. Structural and op...

متن کاملHepatic response to aluminum toxicity: dyslipidemia and liver diseases.
Aluminum (Al) is a metal toxin that has been implicated in the etiology of a number of diseases including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, dialysis encephalopathy, and osteomalacia. Al has been shown to exert its effects by disrupting lipid membrane fluidity, perturbing iron (Fe), magnesium, and calcium homeostasis, and causing oxidative stress. However, the exact molecular targets of aluminum's toxic...
متن کاملMechanisms of hepatic toxicity. I. TNF-induced liver injury.
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) functions as a two-edged sword in the liver. TNF-alpha is required for normal hepatocyte proliferation during liver regeneration. It functions both as a comitogen and to induce the transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB, which has antiapoptotic effects. On the other hand, TNF-alpha is the mediator of hepatotoxicity in many animal models, including tho...
