Abstract
Submandibular gland autotransplantation is an effective approach for treating severe keratoconjunctivitis sicca. However, ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, which inevitably occurs during transplantation, is involved in the hypofunction and structural damage that occur early after transplantation. Therefore, it is critical to identify effective strategies to ameliorate I/R injury in submandibular glands. In this study, we investigated the ability of immediate post-conditioning combined with ischemic preconditioning to attenuate I/R injury. We observed that after I/R injury, the level of reactive oxygen species was increased, inflammatory response was strengthened, and severe apoptosis had occurred. In addition, the salivary flow rate was greatly decreased. However, the pathogenesis of I/R injury was significantly ameliorated by ischemia post-conditioning or ischemia preconditioning treatments. In addition, the combination of ischemia preconditioning and post-conditioning achieved synergistic protective effects against I/R injury compared with ischemia preconditioning or ischemia post-conditioning alone. The secretion function was restored in the combination group. Furthermore, the combination treatment involved the same mechani...Continue Reading
