(EC) is the most effective compound in , and possesses a series of benefits, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiobesity and anticancer effects. In this study, we investigated the protective effects of EC in Acetaminophen(N-acetyl-p-aminophenol, APAP)-induced acute liver injury in C57BL/6J mice and explored the possible mechanisms involved in these effects.[Formula: see text].

Paracetamol (APAP) overdose is the leading cause of drug-induced liver injury, leading to acute liver failure. However, the role of concurrent acute or chronic ethanol ingestion in this context requires further clarification. In this study, we investigated the effects of acute and chronic ethanol ingestion on APAP-induced hepatotoxicity.

Background: Overdose of acetaminophen (APAP), a commonly used antipyretic analgesic, can lead to severe liver injury and failure. Current treatments are only effective in the early stages of APAP-induced acute liver injury (ALI). Therefore, a detailed examination of the mechanisms involved in liver repair following APAP-induced ALI could provide valuable insights for clinical interventions.

Article Synopsis
  • * The only certain treatment for ALF is liver transplantation (LT); however, some patients, especially those with acetaminophen-related liver failure, might recover with medical support instead of needing LT.
  • * Extracorporeal liver support (ECLS) is a growing area of interest in treating ALF, aiming to help the liver by removing toxins and promoting regeneration, with two main types: artificial ECLS (like dialysis methods) and bioartificial ECLS (which uses live hepat

Background: Acetaminophen (APAP)-induced acute liver injury (AILI) is the most prevalent cause of acute liver failure and mitochondrial dysfunction plays a dominant role in the pathogenesis of AILI. Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) is an important marker for maintaining mitochondrial functional homeostasis, but its functions in AILI are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the function of TFAM and its regulatory molecular mechanism in the progression of AILI.
