“…In previous animal studies, promising therapeutic effects have been shown in reducing the inflammatory response with the use of intravenous alkaline phosphatase (9)(10)(11). In a clinical study in severe sepsis patients, continuous infusion of calf-intestinal alkaline phosphatase significantly improved renal function (12,13).…”

“…With respect to the clinical setting, the combination of hepatic I/R injury with partial liver resection (PHx) constitutes a more relevant model [7,11], in which only post-ischemic liver parenchyma is retained. This model therefore allows the assessment of true postoperative liver function, which depends on the extent of resection, the hepatocellular damage inflicted by I/R injury, and post-hepatectomy liver regeneration.…”

“…This model therefore allows the assessment of true postoperative liver function, which depends on the extent of resection, the hepatocellular damage inflicted by I/R injury, and post-hepatectomy liver regeneration. Analysis of hepatocellular damage alone is not an adequate measure of functional recovery, and should therefore be complemented by liver function-specific assays [7,11]. Although traditional biochemical liver function tests such as prothrombin time (PT) and plasma bilirubin concentration can be used to determine the extent of postoperative liver dysfunction, these tests comprise only an indirect and rather insensitive measure of liver function.…”

“…Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, an index of neutrophil infiltration, was measured in liver homogenates of the median lobes of the ischemia and sham groups according to a method modified from Krawisz et al [29] as described elsewhere [29,30]. Values were normalized to the total protein concentration, and MPO activity was expressed in units per milligram of protein (U/mg).…”
