BTB and CNC homology 1 (BACH1) regulates biological processes, including energy metabolism and oxidative stress. Insufficient liver regeneration after hepatectomy remains an issue for surgeons. The Pringle maneuver is widely used during hepatectomy and induces ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in hepatocytes. A rat model of two-thirds partial hepatectomy with repeated I/R treatment was used to simulate clinical hepatectomy with Pringle maneuver. Delayed recovery of liver function after hepatectomy with the repeated Pringle maneuver in clinic and impaired liver regeneration in rat model were observed. Highly elevated lactate levels, along with reduced mitochondrial complex III and IV activities in liver tissues, indicated that the glycolytic phenotype was promoted after hepatectomy with repeated I/R. mRNA expression profile analysis of glycolysis-related genes in clinical samples and further verification experiments in rat models showed that high BACH1 expression levels correlated with the glycolytic phenotype after hepatectomy with repeated I/R. BACH1 overexpression restricted the proliferative potential of hepatocytes stimulated with HGF. High PDK1 expression and high lactate levels, together with low mitochondrial complex III and IV activities and reduced ATP concentrations, were detected in BACH1-overexpressing hepatocytes with HGF stimulation. Moreover, HO-1 expression was downregulated, and oxidative stress was exacerbated in the BACH1-overexpressing hepatocytes with HGF stimulation. Cell experiments involving repeated hypoxia/reoxygenation revealed that reactive oxygen species accumulation triggered the TGF-β1/BACH1 axis in hepatocytes. Finally, inhibiting BACH1 with the inhibitor hemin effectively restored the liver regenerative ability after hepatectomy with repeated I/R. These results provide a potential therapeutic strategy for impaired liver regeneration after repeated I/R injury.
