1 CCl4-mediated malondialdehyde (MDA) formation was increased in rifampicin-treated liver microsomes, demonstrating that rifampicin was capable of increasing the NADPH-dependent metabolism of CCl4 catalyzed by P-450 2E1 to produce free radicals. Free Radicals chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 4 Mus musculus

3 Therefore, the protective effect of rifampicin against CCl4 hepatotoxicity appeared to result from the direct inhibition of lipid peroxidation generated by CCl4-derived free radicals. Free Radicals chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 4 Mus musculus
