Figure 1. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activities in liver effluent obtained after 24 h of cold preservation (a, b). Livers’ rat (n = 6) were flushed and preserved in IGL-1 solution (4°C for 24 h) supplemented with 50 nM of nitrite or with 50 nM of nitrite + 1 mM of L-NAME (L-NG-Nitroarginine methyl ester). Sham: livers were flushed and perfused ex vivo without cold storage. Data are expressed as means ± SE (n = 6 for each group). a: p < 0.05 vs Sham; b: p < 0.05 vs IGL-1.
