Background. To protect hepatocytes from ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice, prolonged delivery of nitric oxide (NO) to the liver was performed by a bolus intravenous injection of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated bovine serum albumin (BSA) with about 10 NO molecules attached via an S-nitrosothiol linkage (PEG-poly SNO-BSA).Methods. A hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury was induced in mice by occluding the portal vein and the hepatic artery for 15 min followed by 6 hours of reperfusion. Each NO donor was injected into the tail vein just before the initiation of the reperfusion at a dose of 2 mu mol NO/kg.Results. The ischemia followed by reperfusion resulted in a striking increase in plasma alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase activities. S-nitroso-N-acetyl penicillamine and NO-BSA, two classical S-nitrosothiols, had no statistically significant effect in preventing elevation of the markers. In marked contrast, PEG-poly SNO-BSA significantly (P
