Recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin improved lipopolysaccharide/d-galactosamine-induced acute liver failure in mice

The effect of recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin (TM-α) on acute liver failure (ALF) is unclear, and we elucidated the effect of TM-α in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/d-galactosamine (GalN)-induced ALF in mice. Placebo (saline) or TM-α (100 mg/kg) was administered 1 h after LPS/GalN administration. Survival rates were evaluated for 24 h after LPS/GalN administration. Plasma and liver samples were evaluated 1, 3, and 7 h after LPS/GalN...
