TLDR
The structures, conformations, and catalytic mechanisms of P450 2E1 have some unusual features among P450s, which may have relevance in the rates of oxidation of drugs, particularly acetaminophen and anesthetics.

Role of Mitochondrial Cytochrome P450 2E1 in Healthy and Diseased Liver

TL;DR: Experimental investigations suggesting that mtCYP2E1 could have a role in alcohol-associated liver disease, xenobiotic-induced hepatotoxicity and NAFLD are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Incidence and risk factors of drug‐induced liver injury

TL;DR: The epidemiology and aetiology of drug‐induced liver injury (DILI) vary across different countries and populations, and traditional Chinese medicine is the primary cause implicated in DILI in the East.
