摘要
AIM： To investigate the effects of resveratrol on liver ischemia/reperfusion （I/R） injury in rats. METHODS： A total of 40 male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 240-290 g were randomized into four groups of ten： （1） controls： data from unmanipulated animals; （2） sham group： rats subjected to the surgical procedure, except for liver I/R, and given saline; （3） I/R group： rats underwent liver ischemia for 45 rain followed by reperfusion for 45 rain; （4） I-R/Resveratrol group： rats pretreated with resveratrol （10 umol/L, iv）. Liver tissues were obtained to determine antioxidant enzyme levels and for biochemical and histological evaluation. RESULTS： Plasma aminotransferase activities were higher in the I/R group than in the I-R/Resveratrol group. Malondialdehyde levels and the hepatic injury score decreased, while superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase levels increased in group 4 compared to group 3. In group 4, histopathological changes were significantly attenuated in resveratroltreated livers. CONCLUSION： These results suggest that resveratrol has protective effects against hepatic I/R injury, and is a potential therapeutic drug for ischemia reperfusionrelated liver injury.
