Investigating the molecular mechanisms of hypothermia-mediated hepatic protection following intestinal ischaemia-reperfusion injury

The pathophysiology of hepatic energy failure following intestinal ischaemia-reperfusion injury (IIR) is not fully understood. In an experimental model of IIR, moderate hypothermia reduces hepatic dysfunction. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the molecular mechanisms of hypothermia-mediated...
