Liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury commonly occurs after various liver surgeries. Adelmidrol, an N- palmitoylethanolamide analog, has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and anti-injury properties. To investigate whether adelmidrol could reduce liver I/R injury, we established a mouse of liver I/R injury and an AML12 cell hypoxia-reoxygenation model to perform experiments using multiple indicators. Serum ALT and AST levels, and H&E staining were used to measure liver damage; MDA content, superoxide dismutase and glutathione activities, and dihydroethidium staining were used to measure oxidative stress; mRNA expression levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin(IL)-1β, IL-6, MCP-1, and Ly6G staining were used to measure inflammatory response; and protein expression of Bax, Bcl-2, C-caspase3, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling staining were used to measure apoptosis...
