the current study, the effect of nilotinib, a marketed drug used by human beings that has a well-defined safety profile, was investigated on APAP-induced hepatotoxicity in mice. Nilotinib treatments for mice were found to protect against APAP-induced liver injury as indicated by decreasing the elevated levels of serum ALT, AST, LDH and GGT activities. The protective effect exerted by nilotinib against APAP-induced liver injury was further confirmed histopathologically by preventing APAP-induced…

teenagers are not fully developed, and this leads them to committing actions that an adult in the same situation might not commit. Studies show that, “In adolescents, the striatum is more reactive than in adults, making adolescents more excited by novelty and feelings of reward ” (Broadway 3). Neuroscientists have determined…
