Proinflammatory response and injury in rat model of IR. Quantitative analysis of proinflammatory molecules (a) interleukin-6 (IL-6), (b) tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and (c) interleukin-18 (IL-18) from sham-operated (sham) or ischemia reperfusion (I/R model) rat serum using ELISA. Values were quantified based on a standard obtained with known concentrations of each molecule (, ±SEM, ). (d) Representative histological section of hematoxylin and eosin- (H&E-) stained lung tissue from sham-operated (sham) rat models. (e) Representative histological section of hematoxylin and eosin- (H&E-) stained lung tissue from ischemia reperfusion (I/R model) treated rat models.
