To investigate the effect of intracellular glycogen on liver ischemia-reperfusion and its mechanism, histomorphological and enzymological changes, histic ATP contents, the activity of Ca2+-ATPase on cytoplasmic membrane and intracellular free Ca2+concentration were observed during the ischemia-reperfusion of three groups of rabbit livers with different glycogen content. We found that the more vigorous energy metabolism, the higher activity of Ca2+-ATPase, the lower concentration of intracellular free Ca2+ and the slighter injury of histic structure and function appeared in the liver with the more abundant glycogen. The results suggest that intracellular abundant glycogen may reduce liver ischemiareperfusion injury.
