HETE–GPR31 axis that functionally determines hepatic IR procession. We have also provided proof of concept that blocking this model. Collectively, this study has revealed previously metabolic uncharacterized involving reprogramming an ALOX12–12- following liver resection. Most strikingly, blocking 12-HETE accumulation effectively attenuated all pathologies of hepatic IR in pigs. Furthermore, we established a nonhuman primate hepatic IR model that closely clinical recapitulates liver dysfunction damage. Notably, blocking 12-HETE production inhibits IR-induced liver dysfunction, and cell death in mice and accumulation and that 12-HETE then directly binds to GPR31, triggering an inflammatory response that exacerbates liver hepatic IR process. We found that ALOX12 was markedly upregulated in hepatocytes during ischemia to promote 12-HETE receptor 31 acid (12-HETE)–G-protein-coupled (GPR31) hydroxyeicosatetraenoic signaling axis as a key determinant of the targets.

Corresponding author(s): Hongliang Li Initial submission Revised version Final submission Life Sciences Reporting Summary Nature Research wishes to improve the reproducibility of the work that we publish. This form is intended for publication with all accepted life science papers and provides structure for consistency and transparency in reporting. Every life science submission will use this form; some list items might not apply to an individual manuscript, but all fields must be completed for clarity. For further information on the points included in this form, see Reporting Life Sciences Research. For further information on Nature Research policies, including our data availability policy, see Authors & Referees and the Editorial Policy Checklist.

` Experimental design 1. Sample size Describe how sample size was determined. The sample sizes of each set of animals were determined according to previous studies performed by our group and other scholars and were fixed in a prospective manner. 2. Data exclusions Describe any data exclusions. One mouse in Alox12-HTG/Rep 6h group died before the sample collection and thus were excluded for statistical analysis 3. Replication Describe whether the experimental findings were All in vitro experiments were performed in triplicate unless specified in the figure reliably reproduced. legends. The detailed replication of each experiments has been provided in Figure Legend. All attempts at replication were successful for all experiments. 4. Randomization Describe how samples/organisms/participants were Animals with the same genotype and similar baseline values were randomly allocated into experimental groups. assigned to the sham and surgery groups or the vehicle and ML355 groups. 5. Blinding Describe whether the investigators were blinded to The experimenters were blinded to the animal genotype and grouping information. group allocation during data collection and/or analysis. Note: all studies involving animals and/or human research participants must disclose whether blinding and randomization were used.

6. Statistical parameters For all figures and tables that use statistical methods, confirm that the following items are present in relevant figure legends (or in the Methods section if additional space is needed).

Software Describe the software used to analyze the data in this Agilent MassHunter software (version B.08.00) was used for the quantitative study. analysis of UPLC-MS. Philips IntelliSpace Portal workstation (version 06.0.3.12200) was used to analyze the perfusion CT data. All clean reads were mapped to reference sequences using SOAP2 (version 2.21) in DGE analysis. Proteome Discoverer software (version 1.4) was used to search against the Uniport mouse protein sequences in proteomics analysis. MeV (version 4.9) was used for K-means clustering analysis. GSEA was implemented in the java GSEA (version 2.2.4). A circular layout showing the correlation coefficients and P values of the pathways was generated using Circos (version 0.69). Clean reads were aligned by HISAT2 (version 2.1.0) in RNA-seq analysis. SAMtools (version 1.4.1) was used to produce BAM files in RNA-seq analysis. Cufflinks (version 2.2.1) was applied to estimate the gene expression in RNA-seq analysis. The gene co-expression network was constructed using WGCNA (version 1.51). All statistical analyses used in this study were performed using SPSS (Version 21.0).

For manuscripts utilizing custom algorithms or software that are central to the paper but not yet described in the published literature, software must be made available to editors and reviewers upon request. We strongly encourage code deposition in a community repository (e.g. GitHub). Nature Methods guidance for providing algorithms and software for publication provides further information on this topic.

Male mice aged 8-10 weeks (24-27 g) were subjected to a 70% warm hepatic IR injury. Mice were maintained in a standard SPF environment with ad libitum access to food and water. ML355 (HY-12341; MCE, Monmouth Junction, NJ, USA) or CDC (ab141560; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) in the solution (DMSO : Solutol : PEG400 : water; 5/10/20/65 v/v/v/v) was injected into mice via the tail vein at 30 min before ischemia and at 6 h after reperfusion at a dose of 3 mg/kg. A blank solution was used as the vehicle control. Primary hepatocytes were isolated from male mice aged 6-8 weeks using collagenase perfusion method. All animal protocols used in this study were approved by the Animal Care and Use Committee of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University and Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of the Institute of Model Animal of Wuhan University.

Liver samples were collected from normal liver tissues of individuals at 3 time points, including before ischemia (baseline group), after ischemia but before reperfusion (ischemia group), and after reperfusion (reperfusion group). The serum samples were obtained at the same time points as the liver samples. Informed consent forms were signed by all donors or their families. All these samples were used only to achieve experimental objective, and the studies were performed according to the principles outlined by the Declaration of Helsinki.
