| Research Abstract |
Liver steatosis is associated with organ dysfunction after hepatic resection and transplantation. One possible cause is hepatic ischemia/reperfusion. The aim of the current study was to determine the role for NOS isoform expression and apoptosis in steatotic liver ischemia/reperfusion injury. Using a murine model of partial hepatic ischemia, expression of NOS isoforms, apoptosis, transcriptional activation, serum ALT levels, and histology were examined. Although serum ALT levels were elevated and histology revealed severe liver injury in terms of steatosis relative to normal liver, steatotic ischemia/reperfusion injury was independent of neutrophil-mediated injury. In steatotic liver, an increase in iNOS expression but little upregulation of eNOS was evident and hepatic apoptosis defined by TUNEL staining was significantly induced which was associated with upregulation of cleaved caspases 9 and 3, but not caspase 8 compared with normal liver. In mice treated with aminoguanidine, ischemia/reperfusion-induced increases in serum ALT levels and apoptosis were greatly reduced, but treated with L-NAME, serum ALT levels were greatly upregulated in the steatosis compared with normal liver. Our data suggested that steatotic liver is vulnerable to ischemia/reperfusion which may be caused by different expression pattern of NOS isoforms and susceptibility to apoptosis by mitochondrial permeability transition.
