Propolis Component May Help Prevent Liver Damage

NF-kappaB-Activated Tissue Transglutaminase is Involved in
Ethanol-Induced Hepatic Injury and the Possible Role of Propolis in
Preventing Fibrogenesis
Toxicology, 2008 Apr 18;246(2-3):148-57

The increased expression and cross-linking activity of tissue
transglutaminase (tTG) have been demonstrated in acute liver injury and
fibrosis. We focused on the molecular mechanisms that contribute to
ethanol-induced tTG expression and investigated the efficacy of propolis
components in preventing both the tTG expression in vitro and
fibrogenesis in vivo...
