We previously reported that liver natural killer (NK) and NKT cells play a critical role in mouse model of acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury by producing interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) and modulating chemokine production and subsequent recruitment of neutrophils into the liver. In this report,

The reactive oxygen species-sensitive transcription nuclear factor-B (NF-B) plays a pivotal role in the development of acetaminophen (APAP) hepatotoxicity. We investigated the efficacy of a diverse series of antioxidants in preventing APAP-induced hepatotoxicity. BALB/c mice were divided into four g
Recent observations suggest that products of nonparenchymal liver cells such as eicosanoids and cytokines might play a role in the expression of liver injury after administration of acetaminophen and other noxious agents. We therefore investigated the effect of a fish oil diet, which results in the
M6 (182 ฯฎ 58 ฯซ 10 9 /l versus 187 ฯฎ 60 ฯซ 10 9 /l, P ฯฝ 0.0001, paired t test). By contrast, the platelet counts at baseline and M6 were similar (166 ฯฎ 64 ฯซ 10 9 /l versus 165 ฯฎ 62 ฯซ 10 9 /l) among nonresponders. Thus, the platelet component of APRI may more closely reflect the ongoing change in hepat
Because S-adenosylmethionine promotes synthesis of hepatic glutathione in chronic liver disease and is well tolerated in man, we investigated its use as an antidote to acetaminophen hepatotoxicity in two mouse models. In C57Bl6 mice, deaths were abolished by S-adenosylmethionine given within 1 hr of
