Macrophage inflammatory protein-2 gene therapy attenuates adenovirus- and acetaminophen-mediated hepatic injury

Abstract

Profound hepatocellular injury is often a consequence of adenovirus-mediated gene therapy or acetaminophen ingestion. The aim of the present study was to examine the role of a CXC chemokine, macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2), in the hepatotoxic response by mice infected with adenovirus and challenged with acetaminophen. CD1 mice that received a replication-defective human type 5 adenovirus vector (Ad70-3) intravenously exhibited hepatic …
