Physiologically-based modelling in mice suggests an aggravated loss of clearance capacity after toxic liver damage

Abstract Diseases and toxins may lead to death of active liver tissue, resulting in a loss of total clearance capacity at the whole-body level. However, it remains difficult to study, whether the loss of metabolizing tissue is sufficient to explain loss of metabolic capacity of the liver or whether...

description Abstract Diseases and toxins may lead to death of active liver tissue, resulting in a loss of total clearance capacity at the whole-body level.
