Résumé
Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) is associated with cardiovascular-related mortality, along with an elevated risk of coronary, cerebrovascular, and cardiovascular events. Notably, AAC is strongly associated with poor overall and recurrence free survival posthepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. Despite the acknowledged significance of atherosclerosis in systemic inflammation, its response to ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) remains poorly elucidated. In this study, we aimed to clarify the impact of atherosclerosis on the liver immune system using a warm IRI mouse model. Injury was induced in an atherosclerotic mouse model (ApoE Elevated serum levels of aspartate and alanine aminotransferase, along with histological assessment, indicated considerable damage in the livers of ApoE These findings suggest that in an atherosclerotic mouse model, atherosclerosis can mirror intrahepatic immunity, particularly activating liver NK and T cells through IL-15 production, thereby exacerbating hepatic damage. The upregulation of IL-15 expression is associated with IRF-1 overexpression.

BACKGROUND
Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) is associated with cardiovascular-related mortality, along with an elevated risk of coronary, cerebrovascular, and cardiovascular events. Notably, AAC is strongly associated with poor overall and recurrence free survival posthepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. Despite the acknowledged significance of atherosclerosis in systemic inflammation, its response to ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) remains poorly elucidated. In this study, we aimed to clarify the impact of atherosclerosis on the liver immune system using a warm IRI mouse model.

Elevated serum levels of aspartate and alanine aminotransferase, along with histological assessment, indicated considerable damage in the livers of ApoE
CONCLUSIONS
CONCLUSIONS
These findings suggest that in an atherosclerotic mouse model, atherosclerosis can mirror intrahepatic immunity, particularly activating liver NK and T cells through IL-15 production, thereby exacerbating hepatic damage. The upregulation of IL-15 expression is associated with IRF-1 overexpression.
