Hydrogen-Rich Saline Protects against Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Grafts after Pancreas Transplantations by Reducing Oxidative Stress in Rats

Figure 3

Inhibition of hydrogen-rich saline treatment on serum cytokine levels in rats. The serum TNF-α (a), IL-1β (b), and IL-6 (c) levels increased strongly after I/R injury. The administration of hydrogen-rich saline (0.6 mM, 6 mL/kg) resulted in significantly decreased levels of serum TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. compared with the SO group; , compared with the HPT + NS group.
