Özet

Background: Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury of the liver may cause various types of damage to hepatic tissues. It can affect the prognosis of patients and the success of an operation. Dexmedetomidine is a selective alpha(2) receptor agonist. We investigated whether dexmedetomidine provides protection against IR-induced liver injury in rats.
