Schematic illustration of the experimental protocol. Sham: laparotomy and dissection of the portal vein but not clamping; I/R group: Ischemia was induced in the median and left lateral hepatic lobes for 1 hr, followed by 2 hour period of reperfusion; Normal saline + I/R group: Saline 10ml/kg injected intraperitoneally 10 minutes before hepatic reperfusion, followed by 2, 6, 12, 24 hour period of reperfusion; Hydrogen-enriched saline + I/R group: 1% hydrogen enriched saline (2.5, 5 or 10ml/kg) injected intraperitoneally 10 minutes before hepatic reperfusion, followed by 2, 6, 12, 24 hour period of reperfusion.
