Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) displays anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective activities as evidenced by the inhibition of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and production of lipid peroxidation. H 2 S also exerts many physiological or pathological effects on livers. Therefore, we designed the present

It has been shown that the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays key roles in the development of fibrosis in numerous organs, including the liver. Other studies have suggested that the RAS also may play roles in diseases of chronic inflammation. However, whether the RAS also can mediate acute inflamm
The aim of the study was to determine if pretreatment with misoprostol (a prostaglandin analogue) or nifedipine (a calcium antagonist), known protectants of the whole liver, would ameliorate the ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) of resected liver associated with vascular occlusion. Male Wistar rats
