Metabolic basis of ethanol-induced hepatic and pancreatic injury in hepatic alcohol dehydrogenase deficient deer mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) and alcoholic pancreatitis (AP) are major diseases causing high mortality and morbidity among chronic alcohol abusers. Neutral lipid accumulation (steatosis) is an early stage of ALD or AP and progresses to inflammation and other advanced stages of diseases in a subset

An unnatural death by propan-1-ol and propan-2-ol.

Only registered users can translate articles

A fatality of an inpatient ingesting a disinfectant containing ethanol, propan-1-ol, and propan-2-ol is reported. The alleged survival time was about 1 h. Major findings at autopsy were an extended hemorrhagic lung edema, an edematous brain, and shock kidneys. Concentrations of alcohols and acetone,

Influence of caffeine on allyl alcohol-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. I. In vivo study.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cotreatment of rats with a low hepatotoxic dose (30.7 mg/kg, i.p.) of allyl alcohol (AA) and a higher, but nontoxic, dose (150 mg/kg, oral) of caffeine (CF) potentiated the hepatotoxicity of AA. This was verified by significantly higher levels of plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity and

[Mechanisms of spontaneous hypoglycaemia in the adult (author's transl)].

Only registered users can translate articles

Hypoglycaemia increases hepatic glucose output; insulin release is suppressed and the secretion of counter regulatory hormones enhanced. Catecholamines and glucagon seem to play a major role. The brain energy content is initially preserved, but the neuronal activity exhibits a 40-60 % decrease.

Alcohol Vapor Inhalation as a Model of Alcohol-Induced Organ Disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

Chronic intermittent ethanol vapor (CIEV) exposure has been used extensively to produce rodent models of alcohol dependence, but unlike other models of alcohol abuse, CIEV has not been assessed as a model of end-organ damage. The purpose of this study was to characterize the effects of CIEV on

Fomepizole fails to prevent progression of acidosis in 2-butoxyethanol and ethanol coingestion.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND 2-butoxyethanol (2BE) is a solvent commonly incorporated into household and industrial cleaning products. Its ingestion causes rapid central nervous system depression, hypotension, and metabolic acidosis attributable to metabolism of the parent compound to butoxyacetic acid (BAA) by

Reversal of severe methanol-induced visual impairment: no evidence of retinal toxicity due to fomepizole.

Only registered users can translate articles

METHODS We report a case of methanol poisoning exhibiting complete recovery from severe visual impairment following treatment with ethanol, fomepizole, and hemodialysis. An adult male presented with central blindness after ingesting methanol. Initial visual acuity was <20/800 (finger counting at 1-2

The pharmacological potential of Sorbus commixta cortex on blood alcohol concentration and hepatic lipid peroxidation in acute alcohol-treated rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effect of Sorbus commixta cortex, a traditional herbal medicine used for the treatment of bronchitis, gastritis and dropsy, on blood alcohol concentration (BAC) and hepatic lipid peroxidation was examined in acute alcohol-treated rats. A 30-min pretreatment with a methanol extract of S. commixta

Ethanol- and acetaldehyde-mediated developmental toxicity in zebrafish.

Only registered users can translate articles

Ethanol is a well-established developmental toxicant; however, the mechanism(s) of this toxicity remains unclear. Zebrafish are becoming an important model system for the evaluation of chemical and drug toxicity. In this study, zebrafish embryos were utilized to compare the developmental toxicity
