Background: Liver ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) is a common but severe clinical problem. Previous studies have revealed that the expression level of β-arrestin2 affects serum deprivation (SD)-induced cell apoptosis and was involved in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated TLR4 signaling pathway. However, little is known about β-arrestin2 in liver apoptosis and immune response induced by I/R.
