We show that brief periods of fasting induce functional changes similar to those induced by long-term dietary restriction in mice, and these changes include protection from ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms of protection induced by fasting, and we deter
Interruption of liver blood flow is often necessary as an operative technique in liver surgery. However, this procedure causes liver damage and can be a factor in postoperative liver failure. Interruption of oxygen and substrate supply and accumulation of metabolites contribute to a great variety of
