Figure 4. Deletion of the HB-EGF gene is associated with decreased survival in mice subjected to prolonged intestinal ischemia/reperfusion.

Figure 4

Mice were subjected to 70 min of ischemia and were observed for 2 weeks for evaluation of overall survival. Survival curves were evaluated using the Kaplan Meyer method and survival rates were compared using the Log Rank test. HB-EGF (+/+) animals (solid line) had significantly improved survival compared to HB-EGF(−/−) mice (dotted line). *p<0.05.
