TPN10466 ameliorates Concanavalin A-induced autoimmune hepatitis in mice via inhibiting ERK/JNK/p38 signaling pathway.

Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) eventually progresses to liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and even hepatocellular carcinoma, causing irreversible damage to the liver. Concanavalin A-induced hepatitis in mice is a well-established model with pathophysiology similar to that of immune-mediated liver injury in human viral and autoimmune hepatitis, and it has been widely used to explore the pathogenesis and clinical treatment of human immune hepatitis. Artemisinin has been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory effects through unclear mechanisms.
