Abstract:
Acute liver injury (ALI) is often caused by virus infection, alcohol, drugs, toxin, and metabolic disorder, and oxidative stress is a common pathophysiological mechanism in the development and progression of ALI and other liver diseases. Hepatocyte function is impaired after ALI, which further causes oxidative stress, and persistent or high-intensive oxidative stress may increase the risk of hepatocyte death and thus result in a series of liver diseases. Oxidative stress is mainly associated with the signaling pathways including nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 and nuclear factor-kappa B. Therefore, it is of great importance to understand the mechanism of oxidative stress in the development and progression of liver injury and related pathways. This article introduces oxidative system and antioxidative system, oxidative stress and damage factors, and oxidative stress and pathways associated with liver injury, so as to provide a reference for the selection of therapeutic targets for ALI and related clinical research.
