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

## Abstract A series of double‐prodrugs of L‐cysteine, designed to release L‐cysteine in vivo and stimulate the biosynthesis of glutathione (GSH), were synthesized. To evaluate the hepatoprotective effectiveness of these double‐prodrugs, male Swiss‐Webster mice were administered acetaminophen (ACP)
## Abstract Oral administration of a‐lipoic acid, a metavitamin, was investigated for its possible hepatoprotective effect in Wistar rats against chloroquine‐induced toxicity. Rats were treated orally with __α__‐lipoic acid (10, 30 and 100 mg kg^−1^ day^−1^) for 7 days before a single oral administ
## Abstract Acetaminophen, a widely used analgesic and antipyretic, is known to cause hepatic and renal injury in humans and experimental animals when administered in high doses. It was reported that these toxic effects of acetaminophen are due to oxidative reactions that take place during its meta
Daucus carota commonly known as carrot, is widely used in European folk medicine for the treatment of jaundice and hepatic disorders. Oral administration of carrot extract (25 mL/kg/day) for 30 days produced significant hepatoprotection against lindane (20 mg/kg/day) induced hepatotoxicity in rats.
## Abstract The immunosuppressive agent cyclosporine A (CsA) has been reported to exert measurable hepatotoxic effects. One of the causes leading to hepatotoxicity is thought to be reactive oxygen radical formation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of __N__‐acetylcysteine (NAC)
