imatinib is an orally administered tyrosine kinase inhibitor which inhibits the bcr-abl protein-tyrosine kinase with high selectivity. imatinib is rapidly absorbed from the gut, after oral intake and has an almost absolute bioavailability of 98%. the metabolism of imatinib is mediated by the cytochrome p450 (cyp) isoenzymes in the liver and gut wall. cgp74588 is a major active metabolite of ima...

the isolated perfused rat liver (iprl) model has been used into toxicology study of rat liver. this model provides an opportunity at evaluation of liver function in an isolated setting. studies showed that cd, in a dose-dependent manner, induced toxic effects in iprl models, and these effects were associated with aminotransferase activity and lipid peroxidation. the aim of this study was to inv...

The concerns about the possible risk of manufactured nanoparticles (NPs) have been raised recently. Nano- and micro-sized copper oxide (CO and CONP) are widely used in many industries. In this regard, in-vitro studies have demonstrated that CONP is a toxic compound in different cell lines. Despite their unique properties, NPs possess unexpected toxicity profiling relative to the bulk m...

high levels of regulated oncogen-alpha (gro-a) expression have been observed in the liver. gro-a stimulates proliferation of epithelial cells and induction of rolling and extravascular migration of neutrophils and mononuclear cells. given the above observations, this chemokine was chosen to be analyzed in freshly isolated and cultured hepatocytes. in this study, hepatocytes (2×106 cell/ml) were...

objective(s): stem cell therapy is believed to be as a promising treatment strategy for tissue repair and regeneration. the plasticity specification of the adult stem cells, such as mscs, has enabled that these cells to be used in the treatment of a broad spectrum of diseases like liver disorders. in this study, the production of urea and albumin (alb), glycogen storage, and expression of some ...

In this research, we investigated the cytotoxic mechanisms of Cochlodinium polykrikoidescell lysate on isolated rat liver hepatocytes.This micro algae is responsible for a severe and widespread harmful algal bloom in the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman (2008-2009). Isolated hepatocytes were obtained by collagenase perfusion of Sprague-Dawley rat liver.According to our results, incubation of algal...
