Gut-liver axis improves with meloxicam treatment after cirrhotic liver resection

Figure 6 Release of interleukin 6 (A), hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (B) and transforming growth factor beta 1 (C) in the serum after liver resection in three different groups at 1, 3 and 24 h. Values are given as mean ± SE. 2-way ANOVA. Bonferroni’s post-test: ^aP < 0.05 vs CG; ^dP < 0.01 vs BDL + M; ^fP < 0.01 vs BDL (n = 15). CG: Control group; BDL: Bile duct ligation; BDL + M: BDL + meloxicam; IL-6: Interleukin 6; HIF-1α: Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha; TGF-β1: Transforming growth factor beta 1.
