Recombinant adiponectin ameliorates liver ischemia reperfusion injury via activating the AMPK/eNOS pathway.
<h4>Background</h4>It is of importance to minimize ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury during liver operations. Reducing the inflammatory reaction is an effective way to achieve this goal. Notably, adiponectin (APN) was found to have anti-inflammatory activity in heart and renal I/R injury...

Liver and blood samples were collected 6h and 24h after reperfusion. Liver function and histopathologic changes were assessed.

Less inflammatory cell infiltration and pro-inflammatory cytokines/chemokines release were also observed in the I/R+APN group when compared with the I/R control group. APN treatment also reduced hepatocyte apoptosis, evidenced by reduced TUNEL positive cells and less caspase-3 expression in the reperfused liver.
