High mobility group box-1 release from H2O2-injured hepatocytes due to sirt1 functional inhibition.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1), recognized as a representative of damage-associated molecular patterns, is released during cell injury/death, triggering the inflammatory response and ultimately resulting in tissue damage. Dozens of studies have shown that HMGB1 is involved in certain diseases, but the details on how injured hepatocytes release HMGB1 need to be elicited. AIM:To reveal HMGB1 release mechanism in hepatocytes undergoing oxidative stress. METHODS:C57BL6/J male mice were fed a high-fat diet for 12 wk plus a single binge of ethanol to induce severe steatohepatitis. Hepatocytes treated with H2O2 were used to establish an in vitro model. Serum alanine aminotransferase, liver H2O2 content and catalase activity, lactate dehydrogenase and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine conte
