Journal ArticleDOI
Bromobenzene-Induced Liver Necrosis. Protective Role of Glutathione and Evidence for 3,4-Bromobenzene Oxide as the Hepatotoxic Metabolite
TL;DR: A dose threshold exists for bromobenzene-induced hepatic necrosis and it is demonstrated that the hepatotoxic metabolite is preferentially conjugated (detoxified) with glutathione, thereby depleting glutATHione from the liver.
Journal Article
Acetaminophen-induced hepatic necrosis. iv. protective role of glutathione
TL;DR: A fundamental role of glutathione in the body may be to protect tissues against electrophilic attack by drug metabolites and other alkylating agents.
Journal Article
Acetaminophen-induced hepatic necrosis. i. role of drug metabolism
TL;DR: It is proposed thatacetaminophen-induced hepatic necrosis is mediated by a toxic metabolite of acetaminophen, which inhibits synthesis of cytochrome P-450 and thereby prevented the hepatic damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acetaminophen-induced hepatic necrosis. VI. Metabolic disposition of toxic and nontoxic doses of acetaminophen.
TL;DR: The relationship between the metabolic disposition of acetaminophen and the susceptibility of hamsters, mice and rats toacetaminophen-induced liver necrosis has been examined.
Journal Article
Acetaminophen-induced hepatic necrosis. ii. role of covalent binding in vivo
TL;DR: It is proposed that acetaminophen-induced hepatic necrosis may be caused by the covalent binding of a chemically reactive metabolite to vital hepatsic macromolecules.
