Permeant cGMP analogs prevent the mitochondria permeability transition (MPT)

Ischemic preconditioning of rat livers from non-heart-beating donors decreases parenchymal cell killing and increases graft survival after transplantation.

HPB surgery : a world journal of hepatic, pancreatic and biliary surgery

Currin RT, Peng XX, Lemasters JJ.
PMID: 22888183
HPB Surg. 2012;2012:236406. doi: 10.1155/2012/236406. Epub 2012 Jul 19.

A critical shortage of donors exists for liver transplantation, which non-heart-beating cadaver donors could help ease. This study evaluated ischemic preconditioning to improve graft viability after non-heart-beating liver donation in rats. Ischemic preconditioning was performed by clamping the portal...

C-Jun N-Terminal Kinase 2 Promotes Liver Injury via the Mitochondrial Permeability Transition after Hemorrhage and Resuscitation.

HPB Surg. 2012;2012:641982. doi: 10.1155/2012/641982. Epub 2012 Jun 27.

Hemorrhagic shock leads to hepatic hypoperfusion and activation of mitogen-activated stress kinases (MAPK) like c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) 1 and 2. Our aim was to determine whether mitochondrial dysfunction leading to hepatic necrosis and apoptosis after hemorrhage/resuscitation (H/R) was...

Icam-1 upregulation in ethanol-induced Fatty murine livers promotes injury and sinusoidal leukocyte adherence after transplantation.

HPB surgery : a world journal of hepatic, pancreatic and biliary surgery

Theruvath TP, Ramshesh VK, Zhong Z, Currin RT, Karrasch T, Lemasters JJ.
PMID: 22778492
HPB Surg. 2012;2012:480893. doi: 10.1155/2012/480893. Epub 2012 Jun 18.

Background. Transplantation of ethanol-induced steatotic livers causes increased graft injury. We hypothesized that upregulation of hepatic ICAM-1 after ethanol produces increased leukocyte adherence, resulting in increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and injury after liver transplantation (LT). Methods....

The mitochondria-targeted antioxidant MitoQ attenuates liver fibrosis in mice.

International journal of physiology, pathophysiology and pharmacology

Rehman H, Liu Q, Krishnasamy Y, Shi Z, Ramshesh VK, Haque K, Schnellmann RG, Murphy MP, Lemasters JJ, Rockey DC, Zhong Z.
PMID: 27186319
Int J Physiol Pathophysiol Pharmacol. 2016 Apr 25;8(1):14-27. eCollection 2016.

Oxidative stress plays an essential role in liver fibrosis. This study investigated whether MitoQ, an orally active mitochondrial antioxidant, decreases liver fibrosis. Mice were injected with corn oil or carbon tetrachloride (CCl4, 1:3 dilution in corn oil; 1 µl/g,...

Ethanol and High Cholesterol Diet Causes Severe Steatohepatitis and Early Liver Fibrosis in Mice.

PloS one

Krishnasamy Y, Ramshesh VK, Gooz M, Schnellmann RG, Lemasters JJ, Zhong Z.
PMID: 27676640
PLoS One. 2016 Sep 27;11(9):e0163342. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0163342. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Because ethanol consumption is commonly associated with a high cholesterol diet, we examined whether combined consumption of ethanol and high cholesterol increases liver injury and fibrosis.METHODS: Male C57BL/6J mice were fed diets containing: 1) 35% of...

Small-for-Size Liver Transplantation Increases Pulmonary Injury in Rats: Prevention by NIM811.

HPB surgery : a world journal of hepatic, pancreatic and biliary surgery

Liu Q, Rehman H, Harley RA, Lemasters JJ, Zhong Z.
PMID: 22675237
HPB Surg. 2012;2012:270372. doi: 10.1155/2012/270372. Epub 2012 May 22.

Pulmonary complications after liver transplantation (LT) often cause mortality. This study investigated whether small-for-size LT increases acute pulmonary injury and whether NIM811 which improves small-for-size liver graft survival attenuates LT-associated lung injury. Rat livers were reduced to 50% of...

Minocycline decreases liver injury after hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation in mice.

Patients that survive hemorrhage and resuscitation (H/R) may develop a systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) that leads to dysfunction of vital organs (multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, MODS). SIRS and MODS may involve mitochondrial dysfunction. Under pentobarbital anesthesia, C57BL6 mice...
