To understand further the immunoregulatory mechanisms operating in the development and regulation of ConA-induced hepatitis, we have evaluated the role of the anti-inflammatory pathway Nrf2/HO-1/CO (Nuclear Factor E2-related Factor 2/Heme Oxygenase-1/Carbon Monoxide) in this condition and determined whether the in vivo administration of CO via the CO-releasing molecule (CORM) CORM-A1, influences serological and histological development of Con-A-induced hepatitis
