Molecular Research on Drug Induced Liver Injury

چکیده
Drugs may cause liver injury in a few susceptible individuals, but the molecular events that lead to this idiosyncratic, largely dose-independent and non-predictable drug-induced liver injury (DILI) are mostly unknown, since animal models to explore the pathogenetic mechanisms of human idiosyncratic DILI are not yet reliable.[...].

Effects of associated SCF and G-CSF on liver injury two weeks after liver damage: A model induced by thioacetamide administration
The present study aimed at investigating the beneficial effects of co-administering granulocyte colony–stimulating factor (G-CSF) and stem cell factor (SCF) in a model of chronic liver injury induced by thioacetamide (TAA). Biochemical and histopathology- cal examinations were performed on serum and liver specimens. At the end of the treatment period, the rats were anesthetized with ether, seru...

Background: There are many reports regarding to effects of Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and stem cell factor (SCF)alone in liver repair .But conflicting data have been reported regarding the role of growth factors such as G-CSF and SCF in the liver regeneration system. Also, there is not such data regarding to effects of co-administration both of G-CSF and SCF in the liver dama...
متن کاملAntioxidant effects of proanthocyanidin from grape seed on hepatic tissue injury in diabetic rats
Objective(s):Diabetes plays an important role in the induction of the liver injury. Grape seed proanthocyanidin (GSP) have a wide range of medicinal properties against oxidative stress. In this study we evaluated antioxidant effects of GSP on liver in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: Thirty male Sprague–Dawley rats were divided into three groups: control, untreated d...
متن کاملThe Effect of Short‐Term Periodic Fasting on the Acetaminophen-Induced Liver Injury in Mice
Introduction: In many cultures fasting is recommended as a way to protect and promote health. However, there are few studies on the effects of fasting on organ function and resistance to toxic agents such as drugs. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of short-term periodic fasting on the acetaminophen hepatotoxic effects in mice. Methods: In this...
متن کاملEvaluation of the effect of taurine on cisplatin-induced hepatic injury and oxidative stress in male rats
Introduction: The principal dose-limiting factor in the use of cisplatin as an antineoplastic drug is its hepatic toxicity. This study was designed to investigate the protective role of taurine against cisplatin-induced hepatic injury. Methods: Male albino rats (180-220 g) were divided in to 4 groups (n=8) as follows: (1) saline-treated group (2): cisplatin-treated group (10 mg/kg ip) (3): g...
