Blocking the Hepatic Branch of the Vagus Aggravates Hepatic Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury via Inhibiting the Expression of IL-22 in the Liver

Figure 1

Schematic illustration of the experimental protocol. SHI: sham operation for hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury; IRI-Sham: hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury; IRI-Hv: hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury + hepatic branch vagotomy; IRI-Hv-IL-22: hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury + hepatic branch vagotomy + IL-22.
