Hypoxia preconditioning protects Ca2+-ATPase activation of intestinal mucosal cells against R/I injury in a rat liver transplantation model

Figure 5 Hypoxia preconditioning decreases the expression of inflammatory factors in rat serum after postoperative I/R injury of intestinal tissue. A: In the HP group, NO levels in the serum were lower, especially at 12 h and 24 h after the operation, compared with the AT group; B: The SOD levels in the HP group 12 h and 24 h after the operation were significantly lower than those in the AT group; C: After the operation, the IL-6 levels in rat liver tissues that had undergone ischaemia-reperfusion injury were significantly higher in the AT group compared with the HP group and the NC group; D: TNF-α levels in the HP group were slightly decreased compared with those in the AT group.
