  • Title: [Effect of prior starvation on the development of acute thioacetamide-induced liver damage in rats].
    Author: Naĭdenova E, Kerimova M, Donchev N, Borov B, Nikolaev V.
    Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1987 Aug; 104(8):170-1. PubMed ID: 3620673.
    Abstract:
    The effect of previous fasting on the liver morphological changes and microsomal cytochrome P-450 and b5 content was studied in thioacetamide-induced (100 mg/kg) rat liver necrosis. Starvation for 48 hours immediately before thioacetamide administration aggravates the dystrophic and necrotic processes, as revealed by histology, electron microscopic investigations and serum aminotransferase activity. The liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 concentration tended to decrease after thioacetamide challenge, with fasting resulting in a more significant loss of cytochrome P-450. Cytochrome b5 content, however, was found to increase in acute liver necrosis induced by thioacetamide.
