Figure 5

cRGD lowers the inflammatory response after intestinal ischemia/reperfusion. Blood and tissues were harvested 4 hours after intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). (A) Serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were determined by ELISA. (B) Gut and (C) lung levels of IL-6 and macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) were determined by ELISA. Data expressed as mean ± standard error (n = 5/group). *P < 0.05 versus sham, #P < 0.05 versus vehicle. ND, nondetectable. cRGD, cyclic arginine-glycine-aspartate peptide.
