Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ischemia-reperfusion injury occurs during a surgical procedure, such as liver resection, organ transplantation, and cardiovascular surgery. Moreover, it leads to severe tissue dysfunction and organ failure. Recent studies have shown that histones are released into the extracellular space during sepsis, trauma, and ischemia-reperfusion injury, and act as major mediators of the death of an organism. We investigated the correlation between extracellular histones and ischemia-reperfusion injury during liver resection and lower limb ischemia mouse model. This study showed the trends of the circulating histone H3 levels increase after ischemia-reperfusion and were related to ischemia time. We examined whether circulating histones are released from necrotic cells or neutrophils with cecal ligation and puncture(CLP)-induced sepsis. We also found that circulating histone H3 levels in septic conditions are mainly derived from neutrophils rather than damaged cells.
