Silybin inhibition of amatoxin uptake in the perfused rat liver
Arzneimittel-Forschung
|January 1, 1980
Abstract:
Silybin dihemisuccinate, in a concentration of 0.4 mg/ml, almost completely inhibited the uptake of an amatoxin by the perfused rat liver. Similary, silybin should also interrupt absorption of toxins due to enterohepatic circulation, e.g. in dog and man. This effect may become important in the therapy of human Amanita poisoning.
