Abstract / Description of output

The host response to cell death underpins the immune activation that follows acute liver injury, and measurement of circulating cell death markers could therefore aid prognostication following paracetamol overdose. Nucleosomes, formed during apoptosis, can complex with high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein and may play a pathogenic role in liver injury.
