Acetaminophen overdose causes a breach of the blood–bile barrier in mice but not in rats
Acetaminophen (APAP) is known to cause a breach of the blood–bile barrier in mice that, via a mechanism called futile bile acid (BA) cycling, increases BA concentrations in hepatocytes above cytotoxic threshol...

Integrated data from intravital imaging and HPLC–MS/MS analysis reveal large interspecies differences in AFB1 metabolism in mice and rats
Large interspecies differences between rats and mice concerning the hepatotoxicity and carcinogenicity of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) are known, with mice being more resistant. However, a comprehensive interspecies compa...

Open AccessInhibition of cytochrome P450 enhances the nephro- and hepatotoxicity of ochratoxin A
The mycotoxin ochratoxin A (OTA) is a contaminant in food that causes nephrotoxicity and to a minor degree hepatotoxicity. Recently, we observed that OTA induces liver damage preferentially to the cytochrome P...

Open AccessColchicine overdose impairs the capacity of Kupffer cells to clear foreign particles and endotoxins
Colchicine is an anti-inflammatory drug with a narrow therapeutic index. Its binding to tubulin prevents microtubule polymerization; however, little is known about how depolymerization of microtubules interfer...

Open AccessSubcellular spatio-temporal intravital kinetics of aflatoxin B1 and ochratoxin A in liver and kidney
Local accumulation of xenobiotics in human and animal tissues may cause adverse effects. Large differences in their concentrations may exist between individual cell types, often due to the expression of specif...
