Model: Paraquat-induced acute lung toxicity following a single intraperitoneal dose of paraquat 30 mg/kg

Febuxostat attenuated paraquat-induced lung injury by inhibiting xanthine oxidase activity and associated oxidative stress, downregulating the RAGE/PI3K/Akt pathway and suppressing beta-catenin and its downstream inflammatory mediators.
