Figure 2

Following liver ischemia and 60 (A) or 360 (B) minutes of reperfusion as described and while maintained at a constant core temperature and under isoflurane anesthesia sex and age matched wild type, TSP1 null and CD47 null mice underwent direct cardiac puncture. Blood was collected in heparin coated syringes, centrifuged, serum separated and immediately processed for serum and liver enzymes. Results represent the mean ± SD of 18 animals, six of each genotype. p < 0.05 CD47 null sALT versus wild type indicated by * and TSP1 null and CD47 null sAST null versus wild type indicated by ** (A) or TSP1 null and CD47 null sALT and sALT versus wild type indicated by * (B).
