Application

D-(+)-Galactosamine hydrochloride has been used to:
  • induce livery injury
  • inflammatory liver injury
  • acute liver failure (ALF) in mice

Biochem/physiol Actions

Galactosamine (D-GalN) is synthesized from galactose and is potential hepatotoxic agent. D-GalN in combination with lipopolysaccharide leads to the development of lethal liver injury and hepatic failure. It sensitizes cells to the toxic effects of the cytokine in particular the tumor necrosis factor(TNF).
