| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Gender differences in drug-induced liver injury (DILI) were investigated in mice. Male mice were mostly susceptible to DILI, and following common and distinctive features in different models were suggested as susceptibility factors. Rapid recovery of hepatic GSH and the resultant resistance to DILI in females were found in acetaminophen hepatotoxicity. On the other hand, severe lipid peroxidation in males and high expression of IL-6 in females were found in carbon tetrachloride hepatotoxicity along with resistance to DILI in females. These factors with gender differences also can be indicative of determinants for interindividual difference of DILI.
