Activation of
poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) mediates oxidative
stress-induced cell injury. We tested the hypothesis that PARP
contributes to ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) damage of the liver by triggering the mechanisms of microcirculatory failure. Leukocyte- and platelet-endothelial cell interactions as well as sinusoidal perfusion were analyzed by intravital fluorescence microscopy after
lobar hepatic I/R (90 min/30 min) in C57BL/6 × 129/Sv wild-type (PARP+/+) and PARP-deficient (PARP
/
) mice. Hepatic I/R
induced leukocyte/platelet-endothelial cell interactions and
tissue injury in PARP+/+ mice, as indicated by impaired sinusoidal
perfusion and increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/aspartate
aminotransferase (AST) serum activities. In PARP
/
mice,
however, the postischemic increase in the numbers of
rolling/adherent leukocytes and platelets was significantly lower. In
addition, I/R-induced translocation of CD62P as well as mRNA expression
of CD62E, CD54, and CD106 were attenuated. The degree of perfusion
failure was reduced and the increase in the ALT/AST activities was
lower in PARP
/
mice compared with PARP+/+ mice. We conclude that
PARP contributes to hepatic microvascular injury by triggering the
expression/translocation of adhesion molecules and modulating
leukocyte/platelet-endothelial cell interactions.
