Abstract excerpt
Ischemia-reperfusion injury due to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) is one of the main causes of liver damage during liver surgery. Donor interleukin-6 (IL-6) rs1800796 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) affect the metabolism of tacrolimus following liver transplantation-related hepatic H/R. This study investigated the response of IL-6 and its promoter polymorphisms to hepatic H/R in liver parenchymal cells. The...
