APAP (Acetaminophen)-induced hepatic injury is a major public health threat that requires continuous searching for new effective therapeutics. KSG (Kaempferol-3-sophoroside-7-glucoside) is a kaempferol derivative that was separated from plant species belonging to different genera. This study explored the protective effects of KSG on ALI (acute liver injury) caused by APAP overdose in mice and elucidated its possible mechanisms.

Overactivation of CDK5 is associated with the initiation and progression of cancer. Inhibiting CDK5 has shown potential in suppressing cancer development.
