The Inhibition of Aldose Reductase Accelerates Liver Regeneration through Regulating Energy Metabolism

Figure 6

The knockout of AR promoted mitochondrial biogenesis and energy metabolism in liver after major hepatectomy and IR injury. (a) The expressions of PPAR-α, PPAR-β, SDHB, AMPK, SIRT1, and PGC1 in normal liver were found to be increased in the N-KO group after major hepatectomy and IR injury. (b) The knockout of AR increased the mRNA levels of PPAR-α, PPAR-β, SDHB, AMPK, SIRT1, and PGC1 in fatty liver after major hepatectomy and IR injury (, /group).
