perhexiline and Fatty Liver

perhexiline has been researched along with Fatty Liver in 4 studies

Perhexiline: 2-(2,2-Dicyclohexylethyl)piperidine. Coronary vasodilator used especially for angina of effort. It may cause neuropathy and hepatitis.

Fatty Liver: Lipid infiltration of the hepatic parenchymal cells resulting in a yellow-colored liver. The abnormal lipid accumulation is usually in the form of TRIGLYCERIDES, either as a single large droplet or multiple small droplets. Fatty liver is caused by an imbalance in the metabolism of FATTY ACIDS.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Drug-induced steatohepatitis is a rare form of liver injury known to be caused by only a handful of compounds."2.52Mechanistic review of drug-induced steatohepatitis. ( Guo, GL; Schumacher, JD, 2015)
"Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is defined histopathologically by the presence of macrovesicular steatosis, cellular ballooning, and inflammation."2.48A myriad of pathways to NASH. ( Larrain, S; Rinella, ME, 2012)
"Drugs rarely cause steatohepatitis, but amiodarone, perhexiline, and DH, have unequivocally been found to independently induce the histologic picture of alcoholic liver disease or NASH."2.42Drug-induced steatohepatitis. ( Sanyal, AJ; Stravitz, RT, 2003)
"In conclusion, steatohepatitis-inducing drugs increase cell calcium and activate tissue transglutaminase, which cross-links CK8 to form a molecular scaffold, from which MDB might secondarily arise."1.35Steatohepatitis-inducing drugs trigger cytokeratin cross-links in hepatocytes. Possible contribution to Mallory-Denk body formation. ( Berson, A; Descatoire, V; Pessayre, D; Robin, MA, 2008)
