New cards

No approved therapeutic claim

As mandated by the FDA, this claim should be present if you were to market your product as a herbal supplement. They do not give safety and toxicological studies. They do not undergo clinical trials

  • Compard to vitex negundo and sambong, those are already approved a drug products with enough studies

2
New cards
  • Hepatocytes

  • Kupffer cells

  • Stellate cells

Lobules contain several types of liver cells

  • — main functional cells of the liver

  • — specialized macrophages

  • — cells involved in liver regeneration and fibrosis

3
New cards

A life span of RBC's is 120 days, what cells clean the expired RBCs

4
New cards
  • zone 1

  • zone 3

  • zone 2

Acinus involved in the metabolism of nutrients and the detoxification of harmful substances. It has three zones

  • — is closest to the entry of blood

  • — abuts the terminal hepatic vein

  • — is intermediate.

5
New cards
  • Protein synthesis inhibition

  • Cellular membrane disrpution

  • Mitochondrial function interference

Mechanism of Toxicant-Induced Liver Injury

  • Direct hepatotoxicity: Toxicants can directly damage hepatocytes (liver cells), leading to hepatocellular injury. This can occur through various mechanisms, including:

6
New cards

Valproic acid

Certain toxicants can damage mitochondria, leading to fatty liver disease

  • — is an example of a toxicant that can cause mitochondrial injury by inhibiting mitochondrial betaoxidation, leading to fat accumulation in the liver. Fatty liver leads sto hepatic cirrhosis

7
New cards

Amiodarone

Certain toxicants can damage mitochondria, leading to fatty liver disease

  • —, a medication used to treat heart arrhythmias, can also cause mitochondrial injury and fatty liver disease

8
New cards

Tetracycline

Certain toxicants can damage mitochondria, leading to fatty liver disease

  • —, an antibiotic, can cause fatty liver disease by interfering with mitochondrial protein synthesis.

9
New cards

Oxidative stress

Mechanism of Toxicant-Induced Liver Injury

  • — occurs when there is an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the body's ability to detoxify them. This can lead to liver injury through cholestasis, which is the impaired flow of bile from the liver to the intestines

10
New cards
  • hepatic fibrosis

Mechanism of Toxicant-Induced Liver Injury

  • Inflammation occurs when the immune system responds to injury or infection. Chronic inflammation can lead to —, which is the formation of scar tissue in the liver.

11
New cards

Alcohol

— is a well-known example of a toxicant that can cause liver inflammation and fibrosis through chronic use.

12
New cards

B, C, and D

Mechanism of Toxicant-Induced Liver Injury

  • Immune-Mediated Injury: The immune system can also cause liver injury through an autoimmune response or by attacking liver cells infected with viruses. Hepatitis viruses, such as hepatitis — can cause liver inflammation and cirrhosis.

  • Chronic inflammation, meaning leading to cirrhosis. Hepatitis A is not a developing hepatitis (treatable)

13
New cards
  • Autoimmune hepatitis

  • Wilson's disease and alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency

  • — is a condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks liver cells, leading to chronic liver inflammation and fibrosis.

  • — are genetic disorders that can also cause immune-mediated liver injury.

14
New cards

Steatosis (fatty liver disease)

It occurs when there is an accumulation of fat in the liver. Alcohol is a well-known example of a toxicant that can cause this through chronic use.

15
New cards

Necrosis

— is a type of cell death that occurs when cells are exposed to extreme stress or toxins.

16
New cards

Aflatoxin B1

—, a toxin produced by certain strains of Aspergillus fungus, can cause necrosis and liver cancer. Can be found in peanuts that are improperly dried. They can culture aspergillus fungus. .

New cards
  • Diclofenac (analgesic)

  • Halothane (anesthetic)

  • Nitrofurantoin (antibiotic)

  • Phenytoin (anticonvulsant)

  • Tienillic acid (diuretic)

Drugs that can cause immune mediated (allergic) idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity

20
New cards
  • Amiodarone

  • Bromfenac

  • Diclofenac

  • Disulfiram

  • Isoniazid

  • Ketoconazole

  • Rifampin

  • Troglitazone

  • Valproate

Drugs that can cause nonimmune mediated (nonallergic) idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity

- to go inside

- to go outside

22

  • Afferent arteriolar constriction

  • Obstruction

  • Back leak

Mechanisms of reduction of the GFR

<p>Mechanisms of reduction of the GFR</p>
23
New cards
  • Adequate blood flow to the glomerulus

  • Afferent arteriolar pressure

  • Glomerular permeability

  • Low intratubulta pressure

GFR depends on 4 factors:

24
New cards

Afferent arteirolar constriction

— decreases GFR by reducing blood flow, resulting in diminished capillary pressure

<p>— decreases GFR by reducing blood flow, resulting in diminished capillary pressure</p>
25
New cards

Obstruction

— — of the tubular lumen by cast formation increases tubular pressure. When tubular pressure exceeds glomerular capillary pressure, filtration decreases or ceases

<p>— — of the tubular lumen by cast formation increases tubular pressure. When tubular pressure exceeds glomerular capillary pressure, filtration decreases or ceases</p>
26
New cards

Back leak

— occurs when the paracellular space between cells increases and the glomerular filtrate leaks into the extracellular space and bloodstream.
