Abstract

An increase in activity of Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent endonucleases on the second hour of hypotension coincided with the presence of DNA fragments in agarose gel. A correlation was established between the duration of hypotension, Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent endonuclease activity, and intensity of nuclear DNA fragmention. Apopotosis of hepatocytes is triggered during ischemia and develops during reperfusion.
