Modified citrus pectin ameliorates methotrexate-induced hepatic and pulmonary toxicity: role of Nrf2, galectin-3/TLR-4/NF-κB/TNF-α and TGF-β signaling pathways
IntroductionMethotrexate (MTX) is a frequently utilized anti-inflammatory and anticancer agent. Its potential liver and lung toxicity often limits its clinical effectiveness. We conducted this study to demonstrate the possible protective impacts of a natural galectin-3 (Gal-3) inhibitor, modified ci...
