Protective role of adiponectin in a rat model of intestinal ischemia reperfusion injury

Figure 1 Adiponectin levels in rats in the sham and ischemia reperfusion injury groups. A: ELISA was used to determine the adiponectin serum levels in the sham and ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury rats. Data are presented as mean ± SD obtained from five independent experiments; B: Western blot analysis of the expression of adiponectin receptor 1 and adiponectin receptor 2 in the small intestine of rats with I/R injury; C: Hematoxylin-eosin staining of the small intestine at different time points after I/R injury; D: Villous injury scores of C. Necrosis was the major damage after intestinal I/R. N: Colon tissue in normal control rat. ^aP < 0.05 vs sham.
