Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Hepatocellular Toxicity of Enavatuzumab, a Humanized Anti-TweakR AntibodyDonghee Choi, Yanhong Zhu, Debra Tien Chao et al.In a Phase 1 clinical study, treatment with enavatuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody to TweakR, resulted in liver toxicity in a subset of patients. The objective of this current study was to evaluate the ability of preclinical studies to predict liver toxicity in humans. Enavatuzumab was evaluated in cynomolgus monkeys, where serum liver enzyme and cytokine levels were measured and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 9 Nov 2017 · 7,719 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAmeliorative Impacts of Tribulus terrestris Against Ivermectin-Induced Hepato-Renal Toxicity in Rabbit: Pharmacological and Histopathological StudySally I. Ismaiel, Sameh M. Farouk, Raafat A. El-Ramady, Waleed F. KhalilThe current work aimed to investigate the protective effects of Tribulus terrestris extracts against ivermectin-induced hepatic and renal toxicity in male rabbit. Selenium plus vitamin E was used as a comparative standard drug to evaluate the efficacy of Tribulus terrestris extract on some hematological parameters, kidney and liver enzymes as well as associated histopathological changes. This work was carried out … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 12 Jan 2017 · 7,766 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTAURINE ATTENUATES HEPATIC AND CARDIAC DAMAGE AND APOPTOSIS IN RABBITS FED A HIGH-FAT DIETGamal Hasan Abdel-RahmanA hypercholesterolemia diet has been associated with the hepatic and cardiac abnormalities and the pathological changes. The present work was designed to investigate the histological and immunohistochemical changes in the liver and heart of rabbits when fed high fat diet and the possible protective role of an antioxidant "taurine". Twenty-four male white New Zealand rabbits were divided into four groups, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 28 Dec 2013 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGENERALIZED REGRESSION NEURAL NETWORK BASED EXPERT SYSTEM FOR HEPATITIS B DIAGNOSISC. Mahesh, E. Kannan, M. S.

It is a major global health problem and the most serious type of viral hepatitis. Chronic liver disease is caused by viral hepatitis and putting people at high risk of death from cirrhosis … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 3 Dec 2013 · 6,983 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAqueous Stem Bark Extract of Spathodea campanulata (P. Beauv) Modulates Carbon Tetrachloride Induced Hepatic Damage in RatsCharles Ansah, Phyllis Elsie Dadzeasah, Emmanuel AsiamahThe objective of the present study was to evaluate the hepatoprotective and curative potential of the aqueous extract of the stem bark of Spathodea Campanulata (SCE) in a carbon tetrachloride-induced model of hepatotoxicity in rats. Rats pre-treated with 625 mg kg-1, 1250, 2500 mg kg-1 or silymarin (50 mg kg-1) p.o for 3 days were intoxicated with CCl4 (1 mL … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 May 2013 · 8,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConcentration-Effect, Incidence and Mechanism of Nevirapine HepatotoxicityAdikwu Elias, Brambaifa NelsonNevirapine is a dipyridozepinone non nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor approved for use in HIV-infected patients. Its efficacy has been well demonstrated in numerous clinical trials. It has activity against HIV-1 but does not have significant activity against HIV-2 or other retroviruses. Nevirapine is used as one of the components of highly active antiretroviral therapy in HIV patients and in the … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 19 Apr 2013 · 8,156 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Storing Temperature on Hepatotoxicity and Nephrotoxicity of Ifosfamide in Female RatFalah Mohammed AzizProblem statement: Ifosfamide (IFO) is a cytotoxic alkylating drug used for the treatment of a variety of cancers, although it has been found to induce certain hematological, hepatotoxic and nephrotoxic side effects. This drug is widely used in developing country, especially Iraq, but without caring too much to the storing temperature due to low drug maintaining facilities.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrastructural Evidences of Hepatitis B Infection in Human Liver Biopsies Disclose Complex Assembly and Morphogenesis Pathways for Hepatitis B VirusViviana Falcon, Ivon Menéndez, Nelson Acosta-Rivero et al.Despite of recent advances on acknowledge of hepatitis B virus (HBV) structure and biology, little is known about the morphogenesis and release of virions. In this study, the ultrastructural analysis of HBV components in liver biopsies from chronically HBV-infected patients disclosed complex assembly and morphogenesis pathways for HBV. HBV core (HBcAg) and surface (HBsAg) antigens were specifically identified in all … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunopathogenesis of Dengue Hemorrhagic FeverHuan-Yao Lei, Kao-Jean Huang, Yee-Shin Lin et al.Dengue virus infection causes Dengue Fever (DF), Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) and Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS) whose pathogeneses were not clearly understood. A new hypothesis of immunopathogenesis is proposed for the development of the DHF/DSS. An aberrant immune over-activation after dengue virus infection not only impair the immune response to clear the virus, but also result in overproduction of cytokines … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 14,762 accessesView PDFCite
