11449466 Janbaz KH, Gilani AH: Studies on preventive and curative effects of berberine on chemical-induced hepatotoxicity in rodents. Fitoterapia. 2000 Feb;71(1):25-33.

Pretreatment of animals with berberine (4 mg/kg; orally twice daily for 2 days) prevented the acetaminophen- or CCl4-induced rise in serum levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and aminotransaminases (AST and ALT), suggestive of hepatoprotection.
Pretreatment of animals with a single oral dose of berberine (4 mg/kg) induced prolongation of the pentobarbital (60 mg/kg, i.p.)-induced sleeping time as well as increased strychnine (0.3 mg/kg; i.p.)-induced toxicity, suggestive of inhibitory effect on microsomal drug metabolizing enzymes, cytochrome P450s (CYPs).

Dopaminergic, interplexiform amacrines (DA cells) were labeled in transgenic mice with human placental alkaline phosphatase, an enzyme that resides on the outer surface of the cell membrane.

Pre-treatment with a single dose of (PhSe) 2 prevented the effect of strychnine, a substrate for CYPs, abolishing lethality in mice.
The liver and kidney were utilized for determination of histopathology, biochemical [aspartate (ALT) and alanine (AST) aminotransferases, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bilirrubin (TB) and gamaglutamyl transferase (GGT)] and toxicological parameters [thiobarbituric reactive species (TBARS) levels, catalase activity, ascorbic acid, nonprotein thiols (NPSH) and aminolevulinate dehydratase (-ALA-D) activity].

8909978 Gilani AH, Janbaz KH, Akhtar MS: Selective protective effect of an extract from Fumaria parviflora on paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity. Gen Pharmacol. 1996 Sep;27(6):979-83.

Pretreatment of rats with plant extract (500 mg/kg, orally twice daily for 2 days) prevented (P < 0.001) the paracetamol (640 mg/kg)-induced rise in serum enzymes alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and transaminases (GOT and GPT), whereas the same dose of the extract was unable to prevent (P > 0.05) the CCI4-induced rise in serum enzyme levels. 4.
The plant extract (500 mg/kg; orally) caused significant prolongation in pentobarbital (75 mg/ kg)-induced sleep as well as increased strychnine-induced lethality in mice (P < 0.05), suggestive of an inhibitory effect on microsomal drug metabolizing enzymes (MDME). 6.

When tested for its possible interaction with pentobarbital (75 mg/kg, i.p.) and strychnine (0.9 mg/kg, i.p.), it caused reduction in pentobarbital-induced sleep in mice as well as preventing the animals against the lethal effect of strychnine, suggestive of an induction of microsomal drug metabolizing enzymes.
