Kaempferol sophoroside glucoside mitigates acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity: Role of Nrf2/NF-κB and JNK/ASK-1 signaling pathways.

ABSTRACT: APAP (Acetaminophen)-induced hepatic injury is a major public health threat that requires continuous searching for new effective therapeutics. KSG (Kaempferol-3-sophoroside-7-glucoside) is a kaempferol derivative that was separated from plant species belonging to different genera. This study explored the protective effects of KSG on ALI (acute liver injury) caused by APAP overdose in mice and elucidated its possible mechanisms. The results showed that KSG pretreatment alleviated APAP-induced hepatic damage as it reduced hepatic pathological lesions as well as the serum parameters of liver injury. Moreover, KSG opposed APAP-associated oxidative stress and augmented hepatic antioxidants. KSG suppressed the inflammatory response as it decreased the genetic and protein expression as well as th
