This study examined the effects of 1 degrees C hypo- or hyperthermia on in vivo liver ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury in 15 fasted male Wistar rats. Rats were ventilated, and rectal temperature was maintained at 36, 37 (normothermic), or 38 degrees C. In all rats, 70% liver ischemia was induced by clamping the afferent vessels to the median and left lateral lobes for 60 min, and reperfusion was allowed for 90 min. Changes in plasma aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alpha-glutathione S-transferase (alpha-GST) levels were measured, hemodynamics and bile secretion were monitored, and arterial blood-gas analysis was performed. All ventilated rats showed a normal pH, arterial PCO(2), and arterial PO(2). AST, ALT, and alpha-GST levels were significantly higher in the 38 degrees C group when compared with the 36 and 37 degrees C groups after ischemia. No differences in bile secretion were found between all groups. Histopathological alterations were in agreement with AST, ALT, and alpha-GST levels in plasma. We conclude that a decrease of only 1 degrees C in body temperature significantly attenuates liver I/R injury, whereas an increase of 1 degrees C significantly increases liver I/R injury. 相似文献

Background
Liver ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury is a common pathophysiological process in many clinical settings. Carvacrol, a food additive commonly used in essential oils, has displayed antimicrobials, antitumor and antidepressant-like activities. In the present study, we investigated the protective effects of carvacrol on I/R injury in the Wistar rat livers and an in vitro hypoxia/restoration (H/R) model.Methods
The hepatoportal vein, hepatic arterial and hepatic duct of Wistar rats were isolated and clamped for 30 min, followed by a 2 h reperfusion. Buffalo rat liver (BRL) cells were incubated under hypoxia for 4 h, followed normoxic conditions for 10 h to establish the H/R model in vitro. Liver injury was evaluated by measuring serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspatate aminotransferase (AST), and hepatic levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH) and malondiadehyde (MDA), and hepatic histology and TUNEL staining. MTT assay, flow cytometric analysis and Hoechst 33258 staining were used to evaluate the proliferation and apoptosis of BRL cells in vitro. Protein expression was examined by Western Blot analysis.Results
Carvacrol protected against I/R-induced liver damage, evidenced by significantly reducing the serum levels of ALT and AST, histological alterations and apoptosis of liver cells in I/R rats. Carvacrol exhibited anti-oxidative activity in the I/R rats, reflected by significantly reducing the activity of SOD and the content of MDA, and restoring the activity of CAT and the content of GSH, in I/R rats. In the in vitro assays, carvacrol restored the viability and inhibited the apoptosis of BRL cells, which were subjected to a mimic I/R injury induced by hypoxia. In the investigation on molecular mechanisms, carvacrol downregulated the expression of Bax and upregulated the expression of Bcl-2, thus inhibited the activation of caspase-3. Carvacrol was also shown to enhance the phosphorylation of Akt.Conclusion
The results suggest that carvacrol could alleviate I/R-induced liver injury by its anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic activities, and warrant a further investigation for using carvacrol to protect I/R injury in clinic. 相似文献4.
目的:研究肢体缺血预处理对大鼠肝缺血/再灌注损伤是否具有保护作用。方法:雄性SD大鼠32只,随机分为对照组(S组);缺血/再灌注组(I/R组);经典缺血预处理组(IPC组);肢体缺血预处理组(远端缺血预处理组,RPC组)。S组仅行开腹,不作其他处理;IPC组以肝缺血5min作预处理;RPC组以双后肢缺血5min,反复3次作预处理,2个预处理组及I/R组均行肝缺血1h再灌注3h。取血用于血清谷丙转氨酶(ALT)与血清谷草转氨酶(AST)检测。切取肝组织用于测定湿干比(W/D)、中性粒细胞(PMN)计数及观察显微、超微结构的变化。结果:与I/R组比较,IPC组,RPC组ALT,AST,W/D值,及PMN计数均明显降低(P〈0.01),肝脏的显微及超微结构损伤减轻。结论:肢体缺血预处理对大鼠肝脏I/R损伤有明显的保护作用,强度与经典缺血预处理相当,其机制可能与抑制肝脏炎症反应、减轻肝脏水肿、改善肝组织微循环有关。 相似文献

Little is known about the effective role of Hypericum perforatum on hepatic ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Hence, albino rats were subjected to 45 min of hepatic ischemia followed by 60 min of reperfusion period. Hypericum perforatum extract (HPE) at the dose of 50 mg/kg body weight (HPE50) was intraperitonally injected as a single dose, 15 min prior to ischemia. Rats were sacrificed at the end of reperfusion period and then, biochemical investigations were made in serum and liver tissue. Liver tissue homogenates were used for the measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) levels. At the same time alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were assayed in serum samples and compared statistically. While the ALT, AST, LDH activities and MDA levels were significantly increased, CAT and GPx activities significantly decreased in only I/R-induced control rats compared to normal control rats (p < 0.05). Treatment with HPE50 significantly decreased the ALT, AST, LDH activities and MDA levels, and markedly increased activities of CAT and GPx in tissue homogenates compared to I/R-induced rats without treatment–control group (p < 0.05). In oxidative stress generated by hepatic ischemia–reperfusion, H. perforatum L. as an antioxidant agent contributes an alteration in the delicate balance between the scavenging capacity of antioxidant defence systems and free radicals in favour of the antioxidant defence systems in the body. 相似文献

This study was designed to study the effects of Melatonin (Mel) and N-Acetylcystein (NAC) on hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. For this purpose Wistar albino rats were subjected to 45 minutes of hepatic ischemia followed by 60 minutes of reperfusion period. Melatonin (10 mg/kg) or NAC (150 mg/kg) were administered alone or in combination, intraperitoneally, 15 minutes prior to ischemia and just before reperfusion. Serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels were determined to assess liver functions. Liver tissues were taken for determination of malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, an end product of lipid peroxidation; glutathione (GSH) levels, a key antioxidant; protein carbonyl concentration (protein oxidation) (PO), a specific marker of oxidative damage of proteins; and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, as an indirect index of neutrophil infiltration. Plasma ALT and AST activities were higher in ischemia/reperfusion group than in control. They were decreased in the groups given Mel, NAC or the combination. Hepatic GSH levels, significantly depressed by I/R, were elevated to control levels in the combination group, whereas treatment with Mel or NAC alone provided only a limited protection. Hepatic MDA and PO levels, and MPO activity were significantly increased by I/R. The increase in these parameters were partially decreased by Mel or NAC alone, whereas treatment with the combination reduced these values back to control levels. In conclusion, considering the dosages used, Mel appeared to be significantly more potent than NAC in reversing the oxidative damage induced by I/R. Our findings show that Mel and NAC have beneficial effects against the I/R injury and due to their synergistic effects, when administered in combination, may have a more pronounced protective effects on the liver. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the role of nitric oxide (NO) in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Immunohistochemistry was used to examine the protein expression of endothelial and inducible nitric oxide synthases (eNOS, iNOS) and nitrotyrosine after I/R challenges to the liver, and blood levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), hydroxyl radical and NO were measured before ischemia and after reperfusion. Ischemia was induced by occlusion of the common hepatic artery and portal vein for 40 min, followed by reperfusion for 90 min. Reperfusion of the liver induced a significant increase in the blood concentrations of AST, ALT, LDH (n = 8; P < 0.001), hydroxyl radical (n = 8; P < 0.001) and NO (n = 8; P < 0.01). The eNOS, iNOS, nitrotyrosine, SOD1 and SOD2 protein expression was also found to increase significantly after reperfusion (n = 3). Administration of the NOS inhibitor N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) (n = 8) had a protective effect on the I/R-related injury, but the NO donor L-arginine (L-Arg) (n = 8) potentiated the damage caused by I/R. These results suggest that reperfusion of the liver induces expression of NOS, which is related to the elevation of blood NO. The increase in hydroxyl radical concentration was accompanied by an increase in antioxidant enzyme expression (SOD1 and SOD2), and an increase in nitrotyrosine expression was also observed, reflecting the increased production of NO and oxygen radicals. We concluded from the protective effect of L-NAME and the potentiation by L-Arg that NOS expression and increases in NO and hydroxyl radical production have deleterious effects on the response to I/R in the liver. 相似文献

Anaesthetic preconditioning (APC) and ischemic preconditioning (IPC) ameliorate liver ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury and are important for regulating hepatic I/R injury. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, noncoding RNA molecules of 21–23 nucleotides in length, and are currently under intensive investigation regarding their ability to regulate gene expression in a wide range of species. miRNA activity is involved in controlling a wide range of biological functions and processes. We evaluated whether APC and IPC are mediated by the same miRNAs by performing comprehensive miRNA screening experiments in a rat model of hepatic I/R injury. Twenty-one rats were randomly divided into three groups (n = 7/group): control (mock preconditioning), APC, and IPC. Control rats were subjected to 60 min of hepatic ischemia followed by 4 h of reperfusion, whereas the APC and IPC groups were preconditioned with 2% sevoflurane and hepatic ischemia for 10 min prior to ischemia-reperfusion, respectively. Liver samples were collected to measure miRNA levels after 3 h of reperfusion, and gene networks and canonical pathways were identified using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). Blood samples were collected to measure the levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT). Although haemodynamic parameters did not vary among the groups, AST and ALT levels were significantly higher in the control group than in the APC and IPC groups. Comprehensive miRNA screening experiments revealed that most miRNAs altered in the APC group were common to those in the IPC group. IPA identified five miRNAs related to the Akt–glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β)–cyclin D1 pathway that were significantly affected by both preconditioning strategies. The application of either APC or IPC to ameliorate hepatic I/R injury results in expression of several common miRNAs that are related to the Akt–GSK–cyclin D1 pathway. 相似文献

There is a very little information about the protective effect of lycopene (LYC) against hepatic ischemia–reperfusion injury. The present study was designed to examine the possible protective effect of the strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, LYC, on hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury. For this purpose, rats were subjected to 45 min of hepatic ischemia followed by 60 min of reperfusion period. LYC at the doses of 2.5 and 5 mg/kg body weight (bw) were injected intraperitoneally, 60 min prior to ischemia. Upon sacrification, hepatic tissue samples were used for the measurement of catalase (CAT) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Also, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were assayed in serum samples. As a result of the use of LYC at the doses of 2.5 and 5 mg/kg bw; while improvements of the ALT, AST, LDH and MDA values were partial and dose-dependent, the improvement of CAT activity was total and dose-independent (p < 0.05). Our findings suggest that LYC has a protective effect against ischemia/reperfusion injury on the liver. 相似文献

Intermittent hypoxia attenuates ischemia/reperfusion induced apoptosis in cardiac myocytes via regulating Bcl-2/Bax expression 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
Intermittent hypoxia has been shown to provide myocardial protection against ishemiaJreperfusion-induced injury.Cardiac myocyte loss through apoptosis has been reported in ischemia/reperfusion injury. Our aim was to investigate whether intermittent hypoxia could attenuate ischemia/reperfusion-induced apoptosis in cardiac myocytes and its potential mechanisms. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to hypoxia simulated 5000 m in a hypobaric chamber for 6 h/day, lasting 42 days. Normoxia group rats were kept under normoxic conditions. Isolated perfused hearts from both groups were subjected to 30 min of global ischemia followed by 60 min reperfusion.Incidence of apoptosis in cardiac myocytes was determined by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) and DNA agarose gel electrophoresis. Expressions of apoptosis related proteins,Bax and Bcl-2, in cytosolic and membrane fraction were detected by Western Blotting. After ischemia/reperfusion,enhanced recovery of cardiac function was observed in intermittent hypoxia hearts compared with normoxia group.Ischemia/reperfusion-induced apoptosis, as evidenced by TUNEL-positive nuclei and DNA fragmentation, was significantly reduced in intermittent hypoxia group compared with normoxia group. After ischemia/reperfusion,expression of Bax in both cytosolic and membrane fractions was decreased in intermittent hypoxia hearts comparedwith normoxia group. Although ischemia/reperfusion did not induce changes in the level of Bcl-2 expression in cytosolic fraction between intermittent hypoxia and normoxia groups, the expression of Bcl-2 in membrane fraction was upregulated in intermittent hypoxia group compared with normoxia group. These results indicated that the cardioprotection of intermittent hypoxia against ischemia/reperfusion injury appears to be in part due to reducemyocardial apoptosis. Intermittent hypoxia attenuated ischemia/reperfusion-induced apoptosis via increasing the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax, especially in membrane fraction. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine what roles the endothelial cell and inducible isoforms of nitric oxide synthase (eNOS, iNOS) play in ischemia and reperfusion (I/R)-induced liver injury in vivo in mice genetically deficient in each isoform of NOS. We found that 45 min of partial (70%) liver ischemia and 5 h of reperfusion induced substantial liver injury as assessed by the release of large and significant amounts of the liver-specific enzyme alanine aminotransferase (ALT) into the serum of wild-type (wt) mice. The enhanced ALT levels were not due to increased recruitment of potentially damaging PMNs, which could mediate hepatocyte injury, as neither histopathological inspection nor quantitative MPO determinations revealed the presence of PMNs in the liver at this time point. In addition, we observed a significant enhancement in liver injury in eNOS-deficient but not iNOS-deficient mice subjected to liver I/R compared to postischemic wt mice. Taken together, these data suggest that eNOS- but not iNOS-derived NO plays an important role in limiting or downregulating I/R-induced liver injury in vivo following 5 h of reperfusion. 相似文献

Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) is an endogenously produced gaseous signaling molecule with diverse physiological activity. The potential protective effects of H(2)S have not been evaluated in the liver. The purpose of the current study was to investigate if H(2)S could afford hepatoprotection in a murine model of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Hepatic injury was achieved by subjecting mice to 60 min of ischemia followed by 5 h of reperfusion. H(2)S donor (IK1001) or vehicle were administered 5 min before reperfusion. H(2)S attenuated the elevation in serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) by 68.6% and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) by 70.8% compared with vehicle group. H(2)S-mediated cytoprotection was associated with an improved balance between reduced glutathione (GSH) vs. oxidized glutathione (GSSG), an attenuated formation of lipid hydroperoxides, and an increased expression of thioredoxin-1 (Trx-1). Furthermore, H(2)S inhibited the progression of apoptosis after I/R injury by increasing the protein expression of heat shock protein (HSP-90) and Bcl-2. These results indicate that H(2)S protects the murine liver against I/R injury through an upregulation of intracellular antioxidant and antiapoptotic signaling pathways. 相似文献

Liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a serious clinical problem. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) and tumor necrosis
factor alpha (TNF-α) are important mediators in liver I/R injury. This study was designed to investigate the effect of preischemic
treatment with fenofibrate (Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor- α agonist) on the oxidative stress and inflammatory
response to hepatic I/R injury in rats. Hepatic I/R was induced by clamping the blood supply of the left lateral and median
lobes of the liver for 60 min, followed by reperfusion for 4 h. Each animal group was pretreated with a single dose of fenofibrate
(50 mg/kg body weight) intraperitoneally 1 h before ischemia. At the end of reperfusion, blood samples and liver tissues were
obtained to assess serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), TNF-α, hepatic malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase activity
(SOD). Liver specimens were obtained and processed for light and electron microscopic study. Hepatic I/R induced a significant
elevation of serum ALT and TNF-α with significant elevation of hepatic MDA and reduction of SOD activity. Histopathological
examination revealed hepatic inflammation, necrosis and apoptosis. Preischemic treatment with fenofibrate at a dose of 50 mg/kg
significantly attenuated the biochemical and structural alterations of I/R-induced liver injury. 相似文献

肢体缺血预适应的肝保护作用与一氧化氮/内皮素-1系统关系的研究 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
目的:观察肢体缺血/再灌注(I/R)后一氧化氮/内皮素-1(NO/ET-1)失衡与肝损伤的关系以及缺血预适应(1pc)对NO/ET-1系统的调节作用。方法:实验用雄性Wistar大鼠18只,随机分为3组(n=6):对照组(control)、缺血/再灌注组(I/R)和缺血预适应组(IPC+I/R),分别测定血浆谷草转氨酶(ALT)、谷丙转氨酶(AST);血浆和肝组织一氧化氮(NO)、内皮素-1(ET-I)的含量变化,一氧化氮/内皮素-1(NO/ET-1)比值及肝组织的总一氧化氮合酶(tNOS)、诱导型一氧化氮合酶(iNOS)、结构型一氧化氮合酶(cNOS)的水平;免疫组化法检测肝组织的诱导型一氧化氮舍酶(iNOS)、内皮型一氧化氮合酶(eNOS)的表达;HE染色,在光学显微镜下观察肝组织的形态学改变。结果:发现肢体再灌注期血浆和肝组织NO、ET-1均明显增加,而NO/ET-1的比值却明显降低,同时血浆ALT、AST升高,光学显微镜下肝细胞、内皮细胞肿胀,肝细胞变性及肝窦淤血,炎性细胞浸润,肝损伤加重,肢体I/R后肝组织iNOS的表达增强,而eNOS(主要为eNOS)的表达减少,伴有总NOS活性增强。说明肢体缺血再灌注后肝组织内皮源的NO产生减少,而非内皮源的NO产生增多;IPC减轻了肢体I/R后引起的NO/ET-1失衡。结论:肢体I/R后肝组织损伤与NO/ET-1失衡有关,IPC对肢体I/R继发的肝组织损伤的保护作用可能是通过对NO/ET-1系统的调节作用而介导的,此时内皮源的NO产生增加,非内皮源的NO产生减少。 相似文献

Whereas both ethanol and gut ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) are known to alter hepatic microvascular function, little is known about the influence of ethanol consumption on the hepatic microvascular responses to I/R. The objective of this study was to determine whether acute ethanol administration exacerbates the hepatic microvascular dysfunction induced by gut I/R. Rats were exposed to gut ischemia for 30 min followed by reperfusion. Intravital videomicroscopy was used to monitor leukocyte recruitment and the number of nonperfused sinusoids (NPS). Plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and endotoxin concentrations were monitored. In separate experiments, ethanol was administered 15 min or 24 h before gut ischemia. In control rats, gut I/R increased the number of stationary leukocytes and NPS. It also elevated the plasma ALT, TNF-alpha, and endotoxin with a corresponding increase in intestinal mucosal permeability. Low-dose ethanol consumption 15 min before gut ischemia blunted the gut I/R-induced leukostasis and elevations in plasma TNF-alpha and ALT. However, high-dose ethanol consumption aggravated the gut I/R-induced increases in leukostasis and increases in plasma endotoxin and ALT. When ethanol was administered 24 h before, high-dose ethanol aggravated the gut I/R-induced hepatocellular injury, but low-dose ethanol did not have any effects on it. These results suggest that low-dose ethanol consumption shortly before gut ischemia attenuates the hepatic inflammatory responses, microvascular dysfunction, and hepatocellular injury elicited by gut I/R, whereas high-dose ethanol consumption appears to significantly aggravate these gut I/R-induced responses. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species have been implicated in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Metalloporphyrins (MP) are stable catalytic antioxidants that can scavenge superoxide, hydrogen peroxide, peroxynitrite and lipid peroxyl radicals. Studies were conducted with three manganese-porphyrin (MnP) complexes with varying superoxide dimutase (SOD) and catalase catalytic activity to determine if the MnP attenuates I/R injury in isolated perfused rat livers. The release of the hepatocellular enzymes alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was maximal at 1 min reperfusion, decreased rapidly and increased gradually by 90 min. Manganese tetrakis-(N-ethyl-2 pyridyl) porphyrin (MnTE-2-PyP) decreased ALT, AST, LDH at 1-90 min reperfusion, while manganese tetrakis-(N-methyl-2 pyridyl) porphyrin (MnTM-2-PyP) and manganese tetrakis-(ethoxycarbonyl) porphyrin (MnTECP) decreased ALT and LDH from 5 to 90 min reperfusion. The release of thiobarbituric acid-reacting substances (TBARS) was diminished by MnTE-2-PyP and MnTM-2-PyP at 90 min. The extent of protein nitration (nitrotyrosine, NT) was decreased in all three MnPs treated livers. These results demonstrate that MnP complexes can attenuate hepatic I/R injury and may have therapeutic implications in disease states involving oxidants. 相似文献

MicroRNA-125b protects liver from ischemia/reperfusion injury via inhibiting TRAF6 and NF-κB pathway
Zuotian Huang Daofeng Zheng Junliang Pu Jiangwen Dai Yuchi Zhang Wanqiu Zhang 《Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry》2019,83(5):829-835
MicroRNA-125b (miR-125b), which was previously proved to be a potential immunomodulator in various disease, attenuated mouse hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in this study. miR-125b was decreased in RAW 264.7 cells exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R). The expression of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in both serum and supernate were reduced in miR-125b over-expression groups. The hepatic histopathological changes were reduced in miR-125b agomir groups. In the miR-125b antagomir groups, serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were significantly elevated compared with negative control (NC) groups. The protein expression of TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), IL-1β and the phosphorylation of p65 (p-p65) were suppressed by the up-regulation of miR-125b. Furthermore, the nuclear translocation of p-p65, measured by immunofluorescence, was enhanced by the miR-125b inhibitors. In conclusion, our study indicates that miR-125b protects liver from hepatic I/R injury via inhibiting TRAF6 and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) signal pathway. 相似文献

Vitamin D, most commonly associated with the growth and remodeling of bone, has been shown to ameliorate ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) in some tissues, yet its underlying mechanism remains elusive. This study was designed to examine the protective effect of vitamin D, if any, against hepatic IRI in rats and the underlying mechanism involved. Adult female Wistar rats were randomly divided into control, sham-operated (sham), ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), and ischemic-reperfused vitamin D-treated (vit D) groups. Rats in the I/R and vit D groups were subjected to partial (70 %) hepatic ischemia for 45 min, followed by 1 h of reperfusion. Vitamin D was given to rats orally in a dose of 500 IU/kg daily for 2 weeks before being subjected to I/R. Markers of liver damage, oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis were evaluated. Hepatic morphology was also examined. Vit D-treated rats had significantly lower serum levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and γ glutamyl transferase compared to rats in the I/R group. Also, vit D-treated rats showed a significant decrease in malondialdehyde, interleukin-1 beta, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, nuclear factor κB, B cell leukemia/lymphoma 2-associated X protein, cytochrome c, and caspase-3 levels, with higher levels of glutathione peroxidase and B cell lymphoma 2 protein levels in liver tissues compared to I/R rats. Histological examination showed less damaged liver tissues with amelioration of apoptotic signs in the vit D group compared to the I/R group. In conclusion, vitamin D supplementation ameliorates hepatic IRI mostly by alleviating the inflammatory-apoptotic response mediated by the oxidative reperfusion injury insult. 相似文献
