PMID: 27123164
Toxicol Res. 2016 Apr;32(2):133-40. doi: 10.5487/TR.2016.32.2.133. Epub 2016 Apr 30.

Sulfasalzine is a widely administered drug against inflammatory-based disorders in human. However several cases of liver injury are associated with its administration. There is no stabilized safe protective agent against sulfasalazine-induced liver injury. Current investigation was designed to evaluate...

Ammonia-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and energy metabolism disturbances in isolated brain and liver mitochondria, and the effect of taurine administration: relevance to hepatic encephalopathy treatment.

Clinical and experimental hepatology
