Objective To explore repair role of allogeneic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells （BM-MSCs） transplantation on treating hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury （HIRI） in rats. Methods Ten rats were executed to get BM-MSCs， then BM-MSCs were cultured in vitro and dyed by 4，6-diamidino-2-phenylindole （DAPI）. Models of 70% hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury were eatablished. Thirty two rats were randomly divided into sham operation group （Sham group）， ischemia reperfusion group （I/R group）， Vitamin C group （VC group）， and BM-MSCs group. Serum samples were analyzed for ALT and AST， and hepatic tissue were for superoxide dismutase （SOD） and malondialdehyde （MDA）. Liver sections were stain with hematoxylin and eosin （HE） for histological analysis， TUNEL staining was applied to detect hepatic apoptosis. Serum and tissues were both collected at 24 h after reperfusion. Results The isolated BM-MSCs maintained vigorous growth in vitro. Specific markers for MSCs antigens CD29 and CD44 were detected by flow cytometry， but antigens CD34 and CD45 were not be detected. Models of HIRI were stable， and BM-MSCs were detected around the periportal area by DAPI staining. Compared with I/R group， levels of ALT， AST， MDA， and AI in the VC group and BM-MSCs group decreased at 24 h after reperfusion （P＜0.05）， meanwhile SOD level increased （P＜0.05）. Compared with VC group， levels of ALT， AST， MDA， and AI in the BM-MSC group decreased at 24 h after reperfusion （P＜0.05）， meanwhile SOD level increased （P＜0.05）. Conclusion BM-MSCs could protect HIRI by alleviating oxidative stress and inhibiting cellular apoptosis.
Objective To investigate the extent of hepatic ischemia reperfusion (HIR) injury in rat cirrhotic liver under different ischemic time，and find the time limit under which the rat with cirrhotic liver could tolerate. Methods At first，the cirrhosis of the rat were induced by carbon tetrachloride（CCl4）injected subcutaneously. Then these rats were randomly divided into four groups. Group A(n=6) was made by sham operation, group B, C, D(n=16) were respectively given 20, 30, 40min hepatic warm ischemia. The 7day survival rate, AST, ALT, TNF and liver, pulmonary pathology were observed. Results The 7-day survival rate was decreased with the increase of hepatic ischemic time. The survival rate of group B, C, D were respectively 100%, 60%, 40%. Between group C, D and group B there were significant differences（P＜0.05）. The level of AST and ALT in group D were （2 448.4±942.3）u/L and （1 189.0±403.4）u/L respectively, and those in group C were （2 185.1±1 732.9）u/L and （1 183.5±707.2）u/L respectively, which were higher than those in group B and A significantly（P＜0.01）. The level of TNF was increased significantly 4hr after reperfusion, as compared with that before operation 〔(0.177±0.139）u/ml〕, P＜0.01. TNF of group B, C, D were （0.399±0.216）u/ml, （0.671±0.351）u/ml and （0.789±0.371）u/ml respectively. At the same time the level of TNF in group C, D was higher than that in group B, A significantly（P＜0.01）. Liver and lung pathology showed increased damage with increasing ischemia. Conclusion Hepatic injury is induced by HIR in rats with cirrhotic liver, and its severity increases with the increase of ischemic time. There is a certain hepatic ischemic time between 20min and 30min, which can be tolerated by the rats with cirrhotic liver. TNF may be used as an indicator，showing the degree of HIR injury and foreseeing the result of injury.
