Popis: Objective. Carbamazepine (CBZ), a widely used antiepileptic drug, is one major cause of the idiosyncratic liver injury along with immune reactions. Conversely, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) demonstrates a hepatoprotective effect by regulating immune reactions and promoting liver repair in various types of liver injury. However, the amount of hepatic PGE2 during CBZ-induced liver injury remains elusive. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the hepatic PGE2 levels during CBZ-induced liver injury using a mouse model.
