Casarett and Doull's toxicology : the basic science of poisons
TL;DR: Casarett and Doull's Toxicology: The Basic Science of Poisons as mentioned in this paper is the most complete and up-to-date overview of the biomedical and environmental aspects of toxicology.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is proposed that PXR serves as a physiological sensor of LCA, and coordinately regulates gene expression to reduce the concentrations of this toxic bile acid, and suggest that PxR agonists may prove useful in the treatment of human cholestatic liver disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metallothionein: an intracellular protein to protect against cadmium toxicity.
TL;DR: During evolution, the ability of MT to protect against Cd toxicity might have taken a more pivotal role in the maintenance of life processes, as compared with its other proposed functions (i.e. storehouse for zinc and free radical scavenger).
Journal ArticleDOI
Xenobiotic, Bile Acid, and Cholesterol Transporters: Function and Regulation
TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of transporters of the solute carrier family (SLC) is provided with regard to tissue distribution, subcellular localization, and substrate preferences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metallothionein protection of cadmium toxicity.
TL;DR: Intracellular MT plays important roles in ameliorating Cd toxicity following prolonged exposures, particularly chronic Cd-induced nephrotoxicity, osteotoxicity, and toxicity to the lung, liver, and immune system.
