ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the protective function and pathophysiology of cystathionine gamma-lyase (CSE)/hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) system in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) in rats.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Wistar rats were randomly distributed into sham group (n = 18), ischemia-reperfusion (IR) group (n = 18), IR + NaHS group (n = 18) and IR + DL-propargylglycine (PAG) group (n = 18). The hepatic IR model was established by Pringle's hepatic vascular occlusion. At each of the indicated time points (1, 3 and 6 hours after IR), the serum levels of H(2)S and the hepatic CSE activity were measured. The serum levels of inflammatory factors, including TNF-α, IL-10 were determined by ELISA methods. The expression of apoptotic protein, TNF-α, in liver tissue was tested by Western blot assay, cell apoptosis was examined by TUNEL and the histological changes were examined in each group.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The serum levels of H(2)S and CSE activity were significantly increased in group IR compared with group sham at all indicated time points (P < 0.05). The serum level of inflammatory factors (P < 0.01) and the hepatic expression of TNF-α protein (P < 0.05) were elevated obviously in group IR than that in group sham. Administration of NaHS could reduce the production of inflammatory factors in serum (P < 0.01), inhibit hepatic protein expression of TNF-α (P < 0.05) and attenuate the liver histological scores of IR injury (P < 0.05), whereas PAG aggravated them.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The endogenous CSE/H(2)S system maybe involved in the pathogenesis of hepatic IR injury, which suggests that CSE/H(2)S system can protect liver from IR injury in rats by intervening in inflammatory reaction, attenuating the injury severity and inhibiting expression of apoptotic protein TNF-α.</p>
