In the human body, the largest gland is the liver and does a lot of essential work of the body. Liver damage is the cause of mortality and increasing day by day. Liver disease is caused by multiple factors, such as an autoimmune condition, toxic chemical exposure, viral infection, and dietary factors. Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a critical issue in drug development because DILI causes failures in clinical trials and the withdrawal of approved drugs from the market and leading to pathological changes result, including increase in SGOT, SGPT and bilirubin as well as the free radical generation. In this review, contains the animal model of hepatotoxicity with a different cause, their action mech., and procedure with dose. These models include the toxicity caused by chemical, drug, radiation, metal, diet, and high-fat this will lead to pathological changes resulting in hepatotoxicity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
