“…Actin cytoskeleton remodeling and hepatocyte BC integrity were reported as primary targets of IRI and have been shown to have direct functional implications on graft recovery in terms of bile secretion (5,10,11). However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these phenotypes remain incompletely characterized.…”

“…Treatment of rat liver with compounds that alter actin polymerization, such as cytochalasin B and phalloidin, leads to the alteration of BC structure (canaliculi dilatation and loss of microvilli) as well as contractile properties (8,9). In addition, a major actin cytoskeleton alteration around the hepatocyte cell membrane has been reported in human liver in response to IRI and has also been related to an impairment of BC contraction, tight junction permeability, and subsequent maintenance of a normal bile flow during the postoperative period (10,11). An intact actin network is therefore required for BC integrity to ensure proper bile secretion, i.e.…”

“…Bile canalicular size change as detected in our study may be coincident with the reorganization of the pericanalicular filaments and the colocalization of actin and myosin. In fact, contraction in this study has been associated with shortening and/or twisting of canaliculi [5].…”

“…According to some authors, the use of the canine LT model seems to allow a better vascular perfusion under ex vivo conditions in contrast to the rat model [5]. All livers underwent perfusion with 5°C cold Ringer's solution into the portal and arterial system prior to cold ischemia at 5°C up to 10 h, related to hypothermia-induced change in hepatic metabolism similar to clinical LT, followed by a 2 h reperfusion period at 37°C.…”

“…1 In addition to injury to hepatocytes, this pathological process causes injury in the intrahepatic vascular and biliary systems seen as hepatic thrombosis or stenosis 2 and biliary strictures. 3,4 This leads to a high risk of liver dysfunctions and failure of liver transplantation. Regarding liver transplantation, the prevention of hepatic I/R injury has been a major research focus for therapeutic development owing to the scarcity of donated livers.…”
