11446826 Ganey PE, Barton YW, Kinser S, Sneed RA, Barton CC, Roth RA: Involvement of cyclooxygenase-2 in the potentiation of allyl alcohol-induced liver injury by bacterial lipopolysaccharide. Toxicol Appl Pharmacol. 2001 Jul 15;174(2):113-21.

Upregulation of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and production of eicosanoids are important aspects of inflammation, therefore studies were undertaken to investigate the role of COX-2 in LPS-induced enhancement of liver injury from allyl alcohol.

Allyl alcohol causes hepatotoxicity that is potentiated by small doses of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) through a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)-dependent mechanism.
