Purpose: Inflammatory responses play an important role in the tissue injury during liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). We previously reported that resolvin D1 (RvD1) administrated prior to hepatic I/R attenuates liver injury through inhibition of inflammatory response. In this study, we investigated the effects of the aspirin-triggered resolvin D1 (AT-RvD1) on hepatic I/R and the role of miR-146b in this process.
Methods: Partial warm ischemia was performed in the left and middle hepatic lobes of Sprague-Dawley rats for 1h, followed by 6h of reperfusion. Rats received either AT-RvD1 (5μg/kg), vehicle, or AT-RvD1+miR-146b antagomir by intravenous injection 30min before ischemia. Blood and tissue samples of the rats were collected after 6-h reperfusion.
Results: Pretreatment with AT-RvD1 significantly diminished I/R-induced elevations of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and significantly blunted the histological injury of the liver. Moreover, AT-RvD1 significantly inhibited inflammatory response, as indicated by attenuations of TNF-α and myeloperoxidase levels. Reduced apoptosis, and increased survival rate were observed in the AT-RvD1 group compared with the control I/R group. AT-RvD1 pretreatment increased miR-146b expression in the liver of the rats with hepatic I/R. Administration of miR-146b antagomir impaired the effects of AT-RvD1 on hepatic I/R injury in rats. Downregulation of miR-146b inhibited TRAF6 and NF-κB expression in liver.
Conclusions: Pre-administration of AT-RvD1 attenuates hepatic I/R injury partly through modulation of miR-146b.

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.

Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IIR/I) significantly increases morbidity and mortality. This study examines the therapeutic effects of geraniol (GNL), which is noted for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, on intestinal I/R injury in rats. Forty-nine male Wistar-Albino rats were divided into seven groups.

Liver ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury is a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-related disease that occurs during liver transplantation and resection and hinders postoperative liver function recovery. Current approaches to alleviate liver I/R injury have limited effectiveness due to the short circulation time, poor solubility, and severe side effects of conventional antioxidants and anti-inflammatory drugs. Herein, a universal strategy is proposed to fabricate a Trojan horse-like biohybrid nanozyme (THBN) with hepatic-targeting capabilities.

Background: Arsenic trioxide (ATO) is indicated as a broad-spectrum medicine for a variety of diseases, including cancer and cardiac disease. While the role of ATO in hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (HIRI) has not been reported. Thus, the purpose of this study was to identify the effects of ATO on HIRI.
