Abnormal erythroid maturation in mice induced by isoniazid.

چکیده
Defective arythropoiesis characterizes the sideroblastic anemias. The present studies were undertaken to assess the effects of isoniazid, an inhibitor of heme synthesis, on erythropoietin-induced erythroid maturation in hypertransfused mice. Isoniazid was administered at intervals during a wave of induced erythropoiesis, and the effects were assessed in both the bone marrow and peripheral blood. The data showed that isoniazid interfered with heme synthesis and erythroid maturation. The most inhibitory effect of isoniazid was noted at the intermediate normoblast stage. A transient increase in the reticulocyte nonheme iron pool was also found.

Introduction: The GABAergic system of the brain plays a key role in morphine tolerance and sensitization. As isoniazid is a modulator of the GABAergic system, the present study aims to understand whether isoniazid can influence the induction of tolerance and sensitization to the rewarding effects of morphine.

Drug induced liver injury (DILI) leads to acute hepatitis in 10%, liver failure, and death in 30%. One of the major drugs causing DILI is Anti-tuberculous drugs and since tuberculosis is affecting 1/3rd of the total world population, their use is quite common. Use of Isoniazid (INH) is limited owing to hepatotoxicity following the stress produced by oxidative species. Silymarin has hepatoprotec...

Background: Prolonged alcohol abuse in men can cause testosterone deficiency and shrinkage of the testicles (testicular atrophy). This can lead to impotence, sterility and ‘feminisation’. When alcohol is broken down in the body, it may also interfere with normal sperm structure and movement. This study was designed to determine the effects of administration of alcohol on sperm quality, sperm ma...
