N2 - We present the case of a 23-year-old female patient with acute liver failure following intake of minocycline. This patient had severe hypereosinophilia and massively increased IgE levels. Experimental studies in this case revealed elevated IFN-?-, as well as TNF-?-producing CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells after in vitro stimulation with minocycline, indicating a type I/IgE-mediated as well as type II/cytotoxic reaction in the pathogenesis of minocycline-induced liver failure. Although mild forms of liver involvement are well known side effects of minocycline, only 8 cases with acute liver failure have been reported, and we present a review of all cases.
