Abstract
Liver diseases and their related complications endanger the health of millions of people worldwide. The prevention and treatment of liver diseases are still serious challenges both in China and globally. With the improvement of living standards, the prevalence of metabolic liver diseases, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and alcoholic liver disease, has increased at an alarming rate, resulting in more cases of end-stage liver disease. Therefore, the discovery of novel therapeutic drugs for the treatment of liver diseases is urgently needed. Glycyrrhizin (GL), a triterpene glycoside from the roots of licorice plants, possesses a wide range of pharmacological and biological activities. Currently, GL preparations (GLPs) have certain advantages in the treatment of liver diseases, with good clinical effects and fewer adverse reactions, and have shown broad application prospects through multitargeting therapeutic mechanisms, including antisteatotic, anti-oxidative stress, anti-inflammatory, immunoregulatory, antifibrotic, anticancer, and drug interaction activities. This review summarizes the currently known biological activities of GLPs and their medical applications in the treatment of liver diseases, and highlights the potential of these preparations as promising therapeutic options and their alluring prospects for the treatment of liver diseases.

Tao W, Fan Q, Wei J. Gut-Liver Axis as a Therapeutic Target for Drug-Induced Liver Injury. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2024; 46:1219-1236. [PMID: 38392196 PMCID: PMC10887627 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46020078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 01/27/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a liver disease that remains difficult to predict and diagnose, and the underlying mechanisms are yet to be fully clarified. The gut-liver axis refers to the reciprocal interactions between the gut and the liver, and its homeostasis plays a prominent role in maintaining liver health. It has been recently reported that patients and animals with DILI have a disrupted gut-liver axis, involving altered gut microbiota composition, increased intestinal permeability and lipopolysaccharide translocation, decreased short-chain fatty acids production, and impaired bile acid metabolism homeostasis. The present review will summarize the evidence from both clinical and preclinical studies about the role of the gut-liver axis in the pathogenesis of DILI. Moreover, we will focus attention on the potential therapeutic strategies for DILI based on improving gut-liver axis function, including herbs and phytochemicals, probiotics, fecal microbial transplantation, postbiotics, bile acids, and Farnesoid X receptor agonists.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is frequently induced by high dose of acetaminophen (APAP) and is concomitant with disturbances of gut flora. Akkermansia muciniphila is beneficial for the repair of liver injury. Lycium barbarum polysaccharide, yam polysaccharide, and chrysanthemum polysaccharide all have anti-inflammatory and antioxidation effects. The objective of this study is to investigate the potential of lycium barbarum polysaccharide, yam polysaccharide, and chrysanthemum polysaccharide (LYC) in improving DILI by increasing the abundance of A. muciniphila. Initially, screening for the optimal concentrations of wolfberry, yam, and chrysanthemum (WYC) or LYC to promote A. muciniphila proliferation in vitro and validated in antibiotic (ATB)-treated KM mice. Subsequently, APAP-induced DILI model in BALB/c mice were constructed to examine the treatment effects of LYC. Our findings indicate that the optimal concentration ratio of WYC was 2:3:2, and LYC was 1:1:1. WYC increased A. muciniphila proliferation in vitro and in ATB-treated mice under this ratio. Meanwhile, LYC increased A. muciniphila abundance in vitro and the combination LYC with A. muciniphila promoted the proliferation of A. muciniphila in ATB-treated mice. The overdose of APAP resulted in the impairment of the intestinal barrier function and subsequent leakage of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Moreover, LYC increased A. muciniphila abundance, reduced intestinal inflammation and permeability, and upregulated the expression of the tight junction protein zonula occludens protein 1 (ZO-1) and occludin contents in the gut. Lastly, LYC inhibited LPS leakage and upregulated hepatic YAP1 expression, ultimately leading to the repair of DILI.

Abstract
The increasing incidence of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) has become a major concern. Gut microbiota, as another organ of the human body, has been studied in various tumors, cardiovascular metabolic diseases, inflammatory bowel disease and human immunity. The studies mentioned above have confirmed its important impact on the occurrence and development of DILI. The gut-liver axis explains the close relationship between the gut and the liver, and it may be a pathway by which gut microbes contribute to DILI. In addition, the interaction between drugs and gut microbes affects both separately, which in turn may have positive or negative effects on the body, including DILI. There are both common and specific changes in liver injury caused by different drugs. The alteration of metabolites in DILI is also a new direction of therapeutic exploration. The application of microbiomics, metabolomics and other multi-omics to DILI has also explored new ideas for DILI. In this review, we conclude the alterations of gut microbes and metabolites under different DILI, and the significance of applying gut microbiome-metabolomics to DILI, so as to explore the metabolic characteristics of DILI and possible novel metabolic biomarkers.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is caused by various drugs with complex pathogenesis, and diverse clinical and pathological phenotypes. Drugs damage the liver directly through drug hepatotoxicity, or indirectly through drug-mediated oxidative stress, immune injury and inflammatory insult, which eventually lead to hepatocyte necrosis. Recent studies have found that the composition, relative content and distribution of gut microbiota in patients and animal models of DILI have changed significantly. It has been confirmed that gut microbial dysbiosis brings about intestinal barrier destruction and microorganisms translocation, and the alteration of microbial metabolites may cause or aggravate DILI. In addition, antibiotics, probiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation are all emerging as prospective therapeutic methods for DILI by regulating the gut microbiota. In this review, we discussed how the altered gut microbiota participates in DILI.

Abstract
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), and IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) are the four main forms of autoimmune liver diseases (AILDs), which are all defined by an aberrant immune system attack on the liver. Most previous studies have shown that apoptosis and necrosis are the two major modes of hepatocyte death in AILDs. Recent studies have reported that inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis is critical for the inflammatory response and severity of liver injury in AILDs. This review summarizes our present understanding of inflammasome activation and function, as well as the connections among inflammasomes, pyroptosis, and AILDs, thus highlighting the shared features across the four disease models and gaps in our knowledge. In addition, we summarize the correlation among NLRP3 inflammasome activation in the liver-gut axis, liver injury, and intestinal barrier disruption in PBC and PSC. We summarize the differences in microbial and metabolic characteristics between PSC and IgG4-SC, and highlight the uniqueness of IgG4-SC. We explore the different roles of NLRP3 in acute and chronic cholestatic liver injury, as well as the complex and controversial crosstalk between various types of cell death in AILDs. We also discuss the most up-to-date developments in inflammasome- and pyroptosis-targeted medicines for autoimmune liver disorders.

Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:1003697. [PMID: 36408213 PMCID: PMC9669476 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.1003697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 10/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: No specific drug for COVID-19 has been found, and many studies have found that different degrees of liver injury often occurred after infection with COVID-19. Glycyrrhizic acid preparation (GAP) has been frequently used clinically, often combined with conventional treatments such as antiviral therapy, to improve the prognosis of COVID-19 and patients' liver function. Aims: To critically review and analyze clinical evidence on the efficacy and safety of GAP in the treatment of COVID-19 alone and COVID-19 with comorbid liver injury. Methods: A systematic literature review was performed following a sensitive searching strategy that examines all articles published in "WHO COVID-19 Research Database," "Cochrane Library," "VIP," "CNKI," "Wanfang," and "CBM" from 2020 to July 2022. Articles were evaluated by peer reviewers and used Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal tools to complete the assessment of the risk of bias. Results: Ten clinical studies were finally included, involving 598 patients with COVID-19, of whom 189 were confirmed to be with comorbid liver injury. The main GAPs used are diammonium glycyrrhizinate and magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate, which have shown efficacy in improving liver function, inhibiting inflammation, and enhancing immunity. We are still seeking more related research. Conclusion: Glycyrrhizic acid preparations (mainly diammonium glycyrrhizinate and magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate) have a considerable clinical effect on improving liver function in patients with COVID-19 alone or with comorbid liver injury. Further studies on the use of GAP in the treatment of COVID-19 with comorbid liver injury and its mechanism are still needed.

[PMID: 36299895 PMCID: PMC9589499 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.1037814] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Isoniazid (INH) and rifampicin (RFP) are the first-line medications for tuberculosis treatment, and liver injury is the major adverse effect. Natural medicinal ingredients provide distinct benefits in alleviating patients’ symptoms, lowering the liver injury risk, delaying disease progression, and strengthening the body’s ability to heal. This paper summarises the recent research on the mechanisms of INH and RFP-induced liver injury and the effects of natural medicinal ingredients. It is believed that INH-induced liver injury may be attributed to oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, drug metabolic enzymes, protoporphyrin IX accumulation, endoplasmic reticulum stress, bile transport imbalance, and immune response. RFP-induced liver injury is mainly related to cholestasis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and liver lipid accumulation. However, the combined effect of INH and RFP on liver injury risk is still uncertain. RFP can increase INH-induced hepatotoxicity by regulating the expression of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters. In contrast, INH can antagonize RFP-induced liver injury by reducing the total bilirubin level in the blood. Sagittaria sagittifolia polysaccharide, quercetin, gallic acid, and other natural medicinal ingredients play protective roles on INH and RFP-induced liver injury by enhancing the body’s antioxidant capacity, regulating metabolism, inhibiting cell apoptosis, and reducing the inflammatory response. There are still many gaps in the literature on INH and RFP-induced liver injury mechanisms and the effects of natural medicinal ingredients. Thus, further research should be carried out from the perspectives of liver injury phenotype, injury markers, in vitro and in vivo liver injury model construction, and liver-gut axis. This paper comprehensively reviewed the literature on mechanisms involved in INH and RFP-induced liver injury and the status of developing new drugs against INH and RFP-induced liver injury. In addition, this review also highlighted the uses and advantages of natural medicinal ingredients in treating drug-induced liver injury.
