...er dysfunction and hence hepatotoxicity. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is the best antidote for APAP but may induce a variety of side effects. This study was designed to compare the potential impact of NAC with that of Thymoquinone (THQ), and/or Curcumin (CUR) either alone or in combination on liver injury induced by inflammation, oxidative stress in response to APAP toxicity in rats. Serum aminotransferases (ALT and AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), lactate dehydrog...

...on tetrachloride-induced hepatotoxicity. Study included the estimation of the activities of the enzymes such as ALAT (alanine aminotransferase), ASAT (aspartate aminotransferase) and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) and biochemical components like glucose, urea, lipids, cholesterol and protein contents both in the liver and blood while DNA and RNA contents only in liver. The administration of CCl4 resulted in increase in plasma ALAT and decrease in LDH. ...

...berculosis drugs induced hepatotoxicity in HL-7702 cells was investigated. Dehydrogenase activity was detected by a lactate dehydrogenase assay kit; superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malonaldehyde (MDA) concentration were detected by a total superoxide dismutase test kit and a malondialdehyde test kit. Genomic DNA and RNA were extracted from cells; Methylation was inhibited by treating HL7702 cells with 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine (AZA), and the level w...

Forty mice, randomly categorized into four groups (N=10) were administered orally with different concentrations of levofloxacin (0.00, 9.37, 18.75 and 37.50µg/g BW of mice) for 30 days consecutively. Mice were sacrificed on 31st day (24 hours after last dose administered) under deep chloroform anaesthesia. Blood was extracted t...

TCDD and QCT were orally administered at the dose of 10µg/kg /day and 20 mg/kg/day, respectively by gavage dissolved in corn oil for 90 days. At the end of the study, animals were sacrificed and their liver were removed for biochemical analysis including the level of ox...

This study aims to determine the prevalence of serological markers of HBV based on serological markers among infected individuals with HIV. Ninety-three sera samples of HIV positive individuals were collected by Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) Teaching Hospital- HIV/AIDS Supporting and Counselling Unit, Ogbomoso. The collected samples were analyzed for e...

... alleviated AFB1-induced hepatotoxicity as reflected in diminishing alanine transaminase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, lipid peroxidation, and raising TNF-α and IL-6 as pro-inflammatory cytokines. Moreover, elevating the reduced levels of glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase were reported. Conclusively, the results of our experiment suggest that that GSPE is a good feed additive for alleviating the negative impa...

Additionally, hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity were obvious in rats treated with cymoxanil, meanwhile, neuronal and pulmonary changes were nearly the same in all doses of the used pesticides. Taken together, our study recommends examining pesticides for their possible adverse effects on animals and humans in case of repeated use, even in small doses, before their application to agricultural fields....

CSO induced antioxidant activity GSH, CAT and inhibited MDA. Histopathological examination in sections of liver, kidney and heart tissues were confirmed these findings. In liver tissues, DOX resulted in an observable induction in CYP3A4 and MRP-...

During the initial periods of acute exposure, the animals had treatment with quercetin (50 mg/kg) for 30 days on consecutive days. Cyclophosphamide (100 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally only on 10 and 30 days six hours after the final dosage of quercetin. After 24 hours, ...

The obtained results showed that CCl4 injection significantly reduced the body weights of mice and increased the relative liver weight. Treatment with M. forsskalii extract after CCl4 injection restores the weights of mice to the normal range and reduced the relative weight of the liver. Mice that were injected with ...
