Core Tip |
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a common liver disease that occurs frequently after drug ingestion. DILI can be classified as predictable or idiosyncratic. The former is dose dependent, has a short latency period, and results from direct toxicity of the drug or its metabolite(s). Idiosyncratic DILI may be more problematic because it is usually unpredictable and is found more frequently in the clinical setting. This type of DILI is due to an allergic reaction or the toxicity of metabolites generated via individual drug metabolism reactions. Various factors, such as environmental, genetic and immunological reactions, may be associated with adduct formation and the onset of DILI. This review summarizes current knowledge on the immunological aspects of DILI, including its pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment. |
