MATERIALS AND METHODSMale ACI rats (Sprague-Dawley, Inc, Indianapolis, Ind), weighing 200 to 250 g, were used in this study. Animals were randomly divided into two groups. One hour prior to partial liver ischemia study animals were treated with 2 mg/kg intravenously (IV) of methylprednisolone, whereas control animals received the same volume of IV saline solution. In each group (n 4), partial liver ischemia was done by clamping the portal and arterial branches to the left lateral and median lobes of the liver for 60 minutes. Animals were killed at 2, 6, 24, and 48 hours after reperfusion. Serum AST, ALT, and LDH were measured and liver samples were obtained and examined for morphology, DNA fragmentation (DNA laddering), and evaluation of apoptosis (TUNEL). Statistical analyses were performed using Student’s t test and the Mann–Whitney U test.
