BACKGROUND: A single dose of IV fish oil (FO) before hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury (HIRI) increases hepatocyte proliferation and reduces necrosis in wild type (WT) mice. It has been suggested that the GPR120 receptor on Kupffer cells mediates FO's ability to reduce HIRI. The purpose of this study was to determine whether GPR120 is required for FO to reduce HIRI. METHODS: Sixty-four (n = 8/group) adult male WT (C57BL/6) and GPR120 knockout (KO) mice received IV FO (1 g/kg) or saline 1 h prior to HIRI or sham operation. Mice were euthanized 24 h postoperatively for analysis of hepatic histology, NFκB activity, and serum alanine transaminase (ALT) levels. RESULTS: FO pretreated livers had less necrosis after HIRI than saline pretreated livers in both WT (mean ± SEM 25.9 ± 7.3% less, P = 0.007) and KO (36.6 ± 7.3% less, P < 0.0001) mice. There was no significant difference in percent necrosis between WT-FO and KO-FO groups. Sham groups demonstrated minimal necrosis (0-1.9%). Mean [95% CI] ALT after HIRI was significantly higher (P = 0.04) in WT-Saline mice (1604 U/L [751-3427]) compared to WT-FO (321 U/L [150-686]) but was not significantly higher in KO-Saline mice compared to KO-FO. There were no differences in ALT between WT-FO and KO-FO mice who underwent HIRI or between groups who underwent sham surgery. There were no differences in NFκB or IKKβ activation among groups as measured by Western blot analysis. CONCLUSIONS: IV FO pretreatment was able to reduce HIRI in GPR120 KO mice, suggesting the hepatoprotective effects of FO are not mediated by GPR120 alone.

Mean [95% CI] ALT after HIRI was significantly higher (P = 0.04) in WT-Salinemice (1604 U/L [751-3427]) compared to WT-FO (321 U/L [150-686]) but was not significantly higher in KO-Salinemice compared to KO-FO. There were no differences in ALT between WT-FO and KO-FOmice who underwent HIRI or between groups who underwent sham surgery.
