Abstract

Recent studies have provided important information in the field of drug-induced liver injury (DILI), in particular regarding the pathogenesis of acetaminophen hepatotoxicity. However, these studies have sometimes left aside some old (but seminal) findings. Efforts should be made to bridge the gap between old and new concepts in DILI.
