Abstract:Although the anti‐inflammatory benefits of exogenous CO are well recognized, its antioxidant potential remains unknown. We examined the role of CO in regulating hepatic oxidant generation using bilateral hindlimb ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) as a model of systemic inflammation. Immediately following the onset of I/R, mice were treated with exogenous CO (methylene chloride or gaseous CO). Bilateral hindlimb I/R caused significant liver damage and lipid peroxidation. In vivo digital microscopy with the oxidant‐sen… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
