毒理性
多达20%的使用两性霉素的患者会出现轻度和短暂的肝酶升高。临床上明显的肝毒性很少见,但已经发表了一些确信的病例。肝脏损伤可能在开始治疗后的4到14天就出现,通常表现为肝细胞或混合模式的酶升高。大多数患者没有症状或黄疸。停止治疗后,恢复会迅速发生。此外,尽管罕见,但已经报告了在开始使用两性霉素几天内出现的孤立但明显的胆红素血症案例,升高中大部分是直接(结合)胆红素部分。这些患者出现肉眼可见的黄疸,但没有全身症状,血清ALT或碱性磷酸酶水平升高的情况很少或没有,没有明显肝损伤的证据。最后,已经罕见报道了接受两性霉素的患者出现急性胆汁淤积性肝炎和黄疸的情况,但这些患者通常病情危重,并接触了多种可能具有肝毒性的药物,因此将病因归咎于两性霉素的依据不强。
Mild and transient elevations in liver enzymes occur in up to 20% of patients receiving amphotericin. Clinically apparent hepatotoxicity is rare, but several convincing cases have been published. The liver injury arises as early as 4 to 14 days after starting therapy, typically with a hepatocellular or mixed pattern of enzyme elevation. Most patients have no symptoms or jaundice. Recovery occurs promptly upon stopping therapy. In addition, isolated but dramatic instances of hyperbilirubinemia arising within days of starting amphotericin have been reported with elevations largely in the direct (conjugated) bilirubin fraction. These patients become visually jaundiced but have no constitutional symptoms, minimal if any elevations in serum ALT or alkaline phosphatase levels, and no evidence of frank hepatic injury. Finally, rare instances of acute cholestatic hepatitis with jaundice have been reported in patients receiving amphotericin, but these patients have generally been critically ill and exposed to multiple potentially hepatotoxic agents, so that the attribution to amphotericin has been weak.
