While we may be aware of obvious toxins (such as cyanide) and avoid ingesting them, few are on the alert to know that many foreign substances (including medications and nutritional supplements) can become toxic after it passes through the liver. The liver is the primary organ responsible for ...

Once reaching the liver, they undergo conjugation by glucuronidation or sulfonation reactions. Moreover, conjugated estrogens are converted into water-soluble molecules and can subsequently be excreted in bile, urine, and feces (Kwa et al., 2016). Some fractions of conjugated estrogens can be ...
Besides these general recommendations, specific aspects of investigating each injury phase or mechanism need to be considered as discussed in the following chapters. 3.3. Drug metabolism and cytochrome P450 enzymes 3.3.1. Background APAP is predominantly metabolized by phase II reactions (glucuronidation...
