Heme oxygenase 1 expression in postischemic reperfusion liver damage: effect of L-arginine.

Abstract:

:Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a multifactorial process that affects liver function after transplantation and resectional surgery. Alterations in hepatic microcirculation and decreased hepatic flow can cause local hypoxia and consequently liver damage, which is worsened by reperfusion. The aim of this study was to evaluate if treatment with L-arginine improved hepatic function in rats with I/R injury. Animals were treated with L-arginine, ischemized for 30 min, and reperfused for 3 h. Plasmatic levels of GOT, GPT, lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH), and total thiol groups (RSH) were evaluated. In addition, we analyzed hepatic LOOH and RSH levels, DNA fragmentation, heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) expression, and histological modifications. Our results demonstrate a significant improvement in hepatic function of I/R rats compared to the control group. Treatment with L-arginine increased the expression of HO-1. These data suggest that L-arginine could be useful in preventing oxidative damage during hepatic surgery.

  • The interrupted-continuous microsurgical suture technique.

    abstract::Interrupted microsurgical sutured anastomoses are the standard to which all new anastomotic techniques must be compared. In 1902, Alexis Carrel described a continuous suture technique for large vessels that initially triangulated the anastomosis with three stay sutures. Our technique is a modification of Carrel's orig...
