Mild hypothermia (32-33°C) shows protective effects in patients with brain damage and cardiac arrest. Although cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRP) contributes to the protective effects of hypothermia through extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation in fibroblasts, the effects of hypothermia in the liver remain unclear.
