ABSTRACT: Background
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced mitochondrial oxidative damage is critical to intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, and PRDX3 is an efficient H2O2 scavenger that protects cells from mitochondrial oxidative damage and apoptosis. However, the function of PRDX3 in intestinal I/R injury is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the precise mechanism underlying the involvement of PRDX3 in intestinal I/R injury.Methods
An intestinal I/R model was established in mice with superior mesenteric artery occlusion, and Caco-2 cells were subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) for the in vivo simulation of I/R.Results
PRDX3 expression was decreased during intestinal I/R injury, and PRDX3 overexpression si
