Mechanisms of Acetaminophen-lnduced Liver Necrosis By Jack A. Hinson‚ Dean W. Roberts‚ and Laura P. James Acetaminophen (paracetamol‚ N-acetyl-p-aminophenol; APAP) is widely used as analgesic and antipyretic drug. At therapeutic doses‚ acetaminophen is safe to be used. Acetaminophen other than aspirin and ibuprofen has only weak anti-inflammatory properties. At higher doses‚ acetaminophen produces a centrilobular hepatic necrosis that can be fatal.

Digestion is a process in which the food that we eat is broken down into tiny nutrients to be taken in by the body. Within the human digestive system‚ chemical and physical reactions occur that allow for the digestion and the absorption of proteins into the bloodstream. The purpose of this paper is to show how chemistry relates to the daily functions within the body. There are two types of digestion processes‚ which are called mechanical and chemical digestion. Mechanical digestion includes the

Introduction Glucose-6-phosphase (G6Pase) is an enzyme presented in liver and used in the hydrolysis of glucose-6-phosphate (G6P). This catalyst the final step in glycogeneogeneis and glycogenolysis which is the key point of homeostatic regulating the blood glucose levels in our bodies. In the experiment‚ we will determine the activity of G6Pase. Frist‚ we will extract the G6Pase from pig liver sample. Then‚ we will assay for the liver G6Pase by enzymatic digestion and phosphate determination. Finally

1. Anatomy- study of the structure and shape of the body and its parts. Physiology- study of how the body and its parts work or function. The relationship between anatomy and physiology is that anatomy has to do with the structures and names of the body‚ while physiology has to do with the function and how the structure works. An example of their correspondence is the cardiovascular system‚ consisting of the heart and blood vessels (anatomy) and how the heart pumps oxygen‚ nutrients‚ and wastes
