Protection from carbon tetrachloride ( CCIJ-induced hepatotoxicity by protein A was assessed histologically in rats. Carbon tetrachloride exposure produced swollen, vacuolated and necrotic cells in the centrilobular region of the hepatocyte in rats. Animals given protein A prior to and during CCl, t

Induction of P450IIE1 by pyridine was compared with that by ethanol, and the resulting potentiation of the pneumotoxicity and hepatotoxicity following carbon tetrachloride inhalation by pyridine was examined. Rats were treated with ethanol as either a 10% solution in the drinking water or as a daily
The preventive effect of neutropenia on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced hepatotoxicity was examined in rats. In rats treated once with CCl4 (1 ml kg(-1), i.p.), the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), indices of liver cell damage, and the hepatic
The methanol extract of Swertia chirata was evaluated for antihepatotoxic activity against carbon tetrachloride induced liver toxicity in experimental rats. The extract was found to be active and on fractionation into butanol soluble and chloroform soluble fractions, the activity was traced and foun
Carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4 ) is a model for studying free radical-induced liver injury and screening hepato-protective drugs. Numerous studies have reported the involvement of oxidative stress in CCl 4 -induced liver damage and the hepato-protective effects mediated by different antioxidants. The p
## Hepatotoxicants can elicit liver damage by various mechanisms that can result in cell necrosis and death. The changes induced by these compounds can vary from gross alterations in DNA repair mechanisms, protein synthesis, and apoptosis, to more discrete changes in oxidative damage and lipid per
