Background and Aim: (Z)2‐(5‐(4‐methoxybenzylidene)‐2, 4‐dioxothiazolidin‐3‐yl) acetic acid (MDA) is an aldose reductase (AR) inhibitor. Recent studies suggest that AR contributes to the pathogenesis of inflammation by affecting the nuclear factor κB (NF‐κB)‐dependent expression of cytokines and chemokines and therefore could be a novel therapeutic target for inflammatory pathology. The current study evaluated the in vivo role of MDA in protecting the liver against injury and fibrogenesis caused by CCl4 in rats, and the underlying mechanisms.
