Article Synopsis
  • Drug-induced liver damage (DILI) has become a significant public health issue, with ClO identified as a potential biomarker for its detection.
  • A new fluorescent probe was developed to detect ClO by modifying a dye, showing a low detection limit, rapid response, and effective tissue penetration.
  • This probe demonstrated promise in detecting ClO levels in mouse models of fluoxetine-induced liver injury, potentially aiding in the early diagnosis of DILI and clinical drug screening.

Purposes: Hepatic bioactivation of fluoxetine (FXN) could increase free radicals' generation provoking hepatotoxicity. Therefore, the protective effects of ellagic acid (EA) and taurine (TAU) treatments against fluoxetine-induced liver damage in rats were examined.

Materials And Methods: Sixty four male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to 8 groups (n = 8).
