2,3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-p-benzoquinone (Coenzyme Q0) Disrupts Carbohydrate Metabolism of HeLa Cells by Adduct Formation with Intracellular Free Sulfhydryl-Groups, and Induces ATP Depletion and Necrosis.

2,3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-p-benzoquinone is a common chemical structure of coenzyme Q (CoQ) that conjugates different lengths of an isoprenoid side chain at the 6-position of the p-benzoquinone ring. In a series of studies to explore the cytotoxic mechanism of CoQ homologues with a short isoprenoid

Ethyl pyruvate attenuates acetaminophen-induced liver injury and prevents cellular injury induced by N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine.

Only registered users can translate articles

Acetaminophen, a common analgesic/antipyretic, is a frequent cause of acute liver failure in Western countries. The development of an effective cure against acetaminophen hepatotoxicity is crucial. Ethyl pyruvate, an ethyl ester derivative of pyruvic acid, has been identified as a possible candidate

Noninvasive monitoring of apoptosis versus necrosis in a neuroblastoma cell line expressing a nuclear pore protein tagged with the green fluorescent protein.

Only registered users can translate articles

A fusion chimera between the integral nuclear pore membrane protein POM121 and GFP (green fluorescent protein) has been shown to correctly target to the nuclear pores when transiently expressed in a number of mammalian cell types. POM121-GFP is therefore an excellent marker for the noninvasive

Interactions between N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine and fluorescent calcium probes: implications for mechanistic toxicology.

Only registered users can translate articles

Intracellular free calcium ([Ca2+]i) homeostasis has been implicated as an early target in both cellular necrosis and apoptosis. In this study, we have used peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) as target cells to investigate the effects of several reactive metabolites associated with drug

Deoxyribonuclease 1 aggravates acetaminophen-induced liver necrosis in male CD-1 mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

An overdose of acetaminophen (APAP) (N-acetyl-p-aminophenol) leads to hepatocellular necrosis induced by its metabolite N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone-imine, which is generated during the metabolic phase of liver intoxication. It has been reported that DNA damage occurs during the toxic phase; however, the

An indole derivative protects against acetaminophen-induced liver injury by directly binding to N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine in mice.

OBJECTIVE Acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury is mainly due to the excessive formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) through the formation of a reactive intermediate, N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI), in both humans and rodents. Here, we show that

Tetrachloro-p-benzoquinone induces hepatic oxidative damage and inflammatory response, but not apoptosis in mouse: the prevention of curcumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study investigated the protective effects of curcumin on tetrachloro-p-benzoquinone (TCBQ)-induced hepatotoxicity in mice. TCBQ-treatment causes significant liver injury (the elevation of serum AST and ALT activities, histopathological changes in liver section including centrilobular necrosis

Late Diagnosis of Paracetamol Poisoning is Always Lethal in Young Adult

Only registered users can translate articles

Acetaminophen has a remarkable safety profile when prescribed in proper therapeutic doses, but hepatotoxicity can occur when misused or after an overdose. The principal toxic metabolite of acetaminophen is N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI). Toxicity should be considered in all suspicious cases

The Chrysin effect in prevention of acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity in rat.

Only registered users can translate articles

Acetaminophen is a commonly used analgesic drug that induces hepatotoxicity at high doses and produces the acetaminophen metabolite N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI) through oxidase isoenzyme system. The anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of flavonoid chrysin has been reported in

Postnatal mice have low susceptibility to paracetamol toxicity.

The hepatotoxicity of paracetamol in mice of 2, 3, 8-10, 24-26, 32-34, and 52-54 wk of age was determined by lethality data, histopathologic examination of the liver, and appearance of glutamate-pyruvate transaminase and glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase activities in the plasma over an 8-h

Rifampicin-activated human pregnane X receptor and CYP3A4 induction enhance acetaminophen-induced toxicity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Acetaminophen (APAP) is safe at therapeutic levels but causes hepatotoxicity via N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine-induced oxidative stress upon overdose. To determine the effect of human (h) pregnane X receptor (PXR) activation and CYP3A4 induction on APAP-induced hepatotoxicity, mice humanized for PXR

Mechanism of protection by metallothionein against acetaminophen hepatotoxicity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose is the most frequent cause of drug-induced liver failure in the US. Metallothionein (MT) expression attenuates APAP-induced liver injury. However, the mechanism of this protection remains incompletely understood. To address this issue, C57BL/6 mice were treated with 100

Current etiological comprehension and therapeutic targets of acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity

Only registered users can translate articles

Acetaminophen (APAP) is the most popular mild analgesic and antipyretic drug used worldwide. APAP overdose leads to drug-induced hepatotoxicity and can cause hepatic failure if treatment delayed. It is adequately comprehended that the metabolism of high-dose APAP by cytochrome P450 enzymes generates

A 1H NMR-based metabolomics approach for mechanistic insight into acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity.

Only registered users can translate articles

The widely used analgesic-antipyretic drug acetaminophen (APAP) is known to cause serious liver necrosis at high doses in man and experimental animals. For studies of toxic processes, 1H NMR spectroscopy of biofluids allows monitoring of endogenous metabolite profiles that alter characteristically

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-binding protein (PBP) but not PPAR-interacting protein (PRIP) is required for nuclear translocation of constitutive androstane receptor in mouse liver.

Only registered users can translate articles

The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) regulates transcription of phenobarbital-inducible genes that encode xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes in liver. CAR is localized to the hepatocyte cytoplasm but to be functional, it translocates into the nucleus in the presence of phenobarbital-like CAR
