Seal Endothelial Cells: a Comparative Model to Study Natural Tolerance to Ischemia/Reperfusion
Reperfusion injury is a common complication derived from ischemia/reperfusion events that occur in the course of myocardial infarction, stroke, embolism and other peripheral vascular diseases. Lack of blood during ischemic episodes activates cellular pathways that upregulate pro‐inflammatory signali...

Reperfusion injury is a common complication derived from ischemia/reperfusion events that occur in the course of myocardial infarction, stroke, embolism and other peripheral vascular diseases. Lack of blood during ischemic episodes activates cellular pathways that upregulate pro‐inflammatory signaling and increase oxidant generation. Reperfusion after ischemia leads to the recruitment of inflammatory cells further exacerbating oxidant production and ultimately resulting in cell death, tissue injury and organ dysfunction. Seals experience routine, repetitive episodes of peripheral ischemia/reperfusion during and after dives. These ischemia/reperfusion events are a direct consequence of the cardiovascular adjustments that allow seals to maximize the use of their oxygen stores while diving but result in selectively reduced perfusion to peripheral tissues.
