Abstract
ABSTRACTIschemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is a life threatening condition that may develop after elective liver surgery or liver transplantation. Numerous surgical and pharmacological approaches have shown varying degrees of protection against liver IRI. A group of protective compounds are the flavonoids but their intestinal absorbtion and bioavailability are low and impredictible. In this issue Tsaroucha et al. reports significantly decreased hepatocellular injury, Fas/FasL expression and inhibited HMGB1 release in rats receiving a hydrosoluble, lyophilized complex of SLB and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (SLB-HP-β-CD) intravenously.
