| Core Tip |
Severe acute liver failure (SALF) is a rare syndrome characterized by rapid deterioration of liver function, usually in patients without underlying liver disease; the only effective treatment is transplantation. In this study, we used thioacetamide (TAA), a known xenobiotic hepatotoxicant, to induce SALF in rats. This was followed by administration of glutamine in an attempt to activate antioxidative defenses via the erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway and mitigate liver injury. Glutamine successfully activated Nrf2 and inhibited TLR4/NFB-mediated inflammation, allowing restoration of parenchymal architecture and recovery of several parameters to near-control levels. |
