Ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury of the liver is associated with impaired bile secretion, but the effects of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and intermittent ischemia (INT) on bile flow are unknown. A rat model of segmental (60%-70%) hepatic ischemia and reperfusion was employed to test the effects of IPC and INT on bile flow. Continuous clamping for 45 min (CC) substantially reduced bile flow, and this did not recover after 60 min of reperfusion. IPC and INT caused a significant recovery of bile flow. The elevation in plasma liver marker enzymes induced by CC was not reduced by IPC and INT. Light microscopy showed mild hepatocyte damage in all groups. In the CC group, the amount of F-actin localized around the bile canaliculi in the ischemic lobes was less than that in the nonischemic lobes, but this difference was not observed in the IPC and INT groups. It is concluded that IPC and INT substantially alleviate the decrease in bile flow induced by ischemia. Bile flow may be useful in the assessment of IR injury.

D000199 Actins Filamentous proteins that are the main constituent of the thin filaments of muscle fibers. The filaments (known also as filamentous or F-actin) can be dissociated into their globular subunits; each subunit is composed of a single polypeptide 375 amino acids long. This is known as globular or G-actin. In conjunction with MYOSINS, actin is responsible for the contraction and relaxation of muscle.

D000637 Transaminases A subclass of enzymes of the transferase class that catalyze the transfer of an amino group from a donor (generally an amino acid) to an acceptor (generally a 2-keto acid).
