Abstract
Remifentanil protects against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced organ injury, although its underlying mechanism remains elusive. This study was designed to examine the protective effect of remifentanil preconditioning, if any, against hepatic I/R injury in rats and the underlying mechanism involved.
