Although the roles of the metabolic stress in organ ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) have
been well recognized, the question of whether and how these stress responses regulate
innate immune activation against IR remains unclear. In a murine liver partial warm ischemia
mode, we showed that prolonged ischemia triggered endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress
response, particularly, the activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) branch, in liver Kupffer
cells (KCs) and altered their responsiveness against Toll-like receptor (TLR) stimulation …
