Background: Ischemia-reperfusion injury contributes significantly to the pathogenesis of chronic wounds such as pressure sores and diabetic foot ulcers. The authors' laboratory has previously developed a cyclical murine ischemia-reperfusion injury model. The authors here use this model to determine factors underlying tissue response to ischemia-reperfusion injury.
Methods: C57BL/6 mice were subjected to cycles of ischemia-reperfusion that varied in number (one to four cycles) and duration of ischemia (1 to 2 hours). For each ischemia-reperfusion condition, the following variables were analyzed: (1) digital photographs for area of necrosis; (2) hematoxylin and eosin staining and immunohistochemistry for inflammatory infiltrate; and (3) expression of inflammatory markers by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. In addition, human adipocytes and fibroblasts were cultured in vitro under conditions of hypoxia and reoxygenation, and expression of inflammatory markers was analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
Results: Increases in both ischemia-reperfusion cycle number and ischemia duration correlated with increased areas of epithelial necrosis both grossly and histologically, and with an increase in cellularity and neutrophil density. This increased inflammatory infiltrate and a significant increase in the expression of proinflammatory markers (Hmox1, interleukin-6, interleukin-1, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1) was observed in adipose tissue subjected to ischemia-reperfusion injury, but not in dermis. These results were mirrored in human adipose tissue.
Conclusions: The authors further characterize a novel, reproducible murine model of ischemia-reperfusion injury. The results of their study indicate that adipose tissue is less tolerant of ischemia-reperfusion than dermal tissue. Rather than being an "innocent bystander," adipose tissue plays an active role in driving the inflammatory response to ischemia-reperfusion injury.

DNA2, a multifunctional enzyme with structure-specific nuclease, 5 -to-3 helicase, and DNA-dependent ATPase activities, plays a pivotal role in the cellular response to DNA damage. However, its involvement in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remains to be elucidated. This study investigated the involvement of DNA2 in cerebral I/R injury using conditional knockout (cKO) mice ( -Cre) subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), an established model of cerebral I/R.

Renal dysfunction due to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common problem after kidney transplantation. In recent years, studies on animal models have shown that exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC-Exo) play an important role in treating acute kidney injury (AKI) and promoting tissue repair. The microneedle patch provides a noninvasive and targeted delivery system for exosomes.

Ischemic stroke is a major cause of mortality and disability worldwide. Among patients with ischemic stroke, the primary treatment goal is to reduce acute cerebral ischemic injury and limit the infarct size in a timely manner by ensuring effective cerebral reperfusion through the administration of either intravenous thrombolysis or endovascular therapy. However, reperfusion can induce neuronal death, known as cerebral reperfusion injury, for which effective therapies are lacking.

Background And Objective: Hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury (HIRI) is a common complication closely related to the prognosis of liver surgery, and effective treatment methods are still unavailable. SRT1720 has the characteristics of multifunction and multitarget which may cope with the multidirectional complex pathological process caused by HIRI. The present study aimed to explore the potential mechanism of SRT1720 in HIRI through a combination of network pharmacology, in vitro experiments and in vivo models.

To investigate the neuroprotective mechanism of mild hypothermia (MH) in ameliorating cerebral ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury. The Pulsinelli's four-vessel ligation method was utilized to establish a rat model of global cerebral IR injury. To investigate the role of S100A8 in MH treatment of cerebral IR injury, hippocampus-specific S100A8 loss or gain of function was achieved using an adeno-associated virus system.
