Abstract | OBJECTIVES: METHODS: Male C57BL/6 mice were intraperitoneally injected with 10 ml/kg body weight of CCl4 (0.5% diluted in arachis oil) for acute liver injury after oral administration of specnuezhenide for 7 days. Twenty-four hours after the final CCl4 injection, mice were euthanized and plasma and liver samples were collected. KEY FINDINGS: CONCLUSIONS:
Specnuezhenide reduced CCl4-induced liver injury in mice by inhibiting oxidative stress via activation of Nrf2 signalling and decreasing hepatocyte apoptosis.
