D(+)-Galactosamine hydrochloride
Based on 3 publication(s) in Google Scholar
D(+)-Galactosamine (D-Galactosamine) hydrochloride, which is an established experimental toxin, primarily causes liver injury by the generation of free radicals and depletion of UTP nucleotides. D(+)-Galactosamine hydrochloride intoxication also induces renal dysfunction thus, renal failure is often associated with the end-stage of the liver damage. Lipopolysaccharide/D(+)-Galactosamine-induced acute liver injury is a known animal model of fulminant hepatic failure.

-
Result:Induces a model of acute liver failure, with necrosis in the liver.
Increased serum ALT and AST levels and serum inflammatory cytokine concentrations, such as TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-18.
Please do not refer to only one article to determine the experimental conditions. It is recommended to determine the optimal experimental conditions (animal strain, age, dosage, frequency and cycle, detection time and indicators, etc.) through preliminary experiments before the formal experiment.
D-Galactosamine can be used to induce hepatitis models.
Administration: 250 mg/kg • i.p. • 6 injection in 24 hours or 1.5 g/kg • i.p.

M464 mitigates LPS/D-GalN-induced acute liver injury in mice. Following intragastric administration of M464 (15, 30 and 60 mg/kg) for 1 h, Mice were intraperitoneally injected with LPS at a dose of 50 μg/kg and D-GalN at 800 mg/kg and then sacrificed after 6 h of stimulation. The groups included Con (control), Mod (LPS injection), DXM (Dexamethasone treatment at 10 mg/kg), and M464 at different doses (15, 30, 60 mg/kg). Gross examination of mice liver.
