The effect and mechanism of ischemic preconditioning on preservation/reperfusion injury of rat liver graft / 中国普通外科杂志

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of ischemic preconditioning (IP)on preservation/reperfusion injury of rat liver graft.MethodsOne hundred and twenty eight male Sprague Dawley rats undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation were randomly divided into 4 groups group A (control group), group B (IP group), group C (adenosine,Ado group), and group D (inhibitor of NO synthesis,NAME group).ResultsPosttransplantation one week survival rate, 2 hrs reperfusion serum NO, and hepatic tissue adenosine in IP group and Ado group were 88%(7/8) and 88%(7/8), (33 0?6 1)??mol/l and (29 1?6 5)??mol/l, ( 7 2? 1 8)??mol/g and (5 7?1 3)??mol/g, respectively, while in control group they were 38%(3/8),( 15 4? 3 0)?mol/l, and (3 69?0 54)??mol/g, respectively(all P 0 05). However, hepatic tissue adenosine level was (5 56?1 19)??mol/g, higher than that in control group( P
