Murine milk fat globule epidermal growth factor 8 (MFG-E8) deficiency worsens the inflammatory response in the lung of mice after gut ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Four hours postreperfusion after 90-minute superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion, pulmonary tissues were collected and assessed for (A) IL-1β and (B) IL-6 (WT = wild type; KO = MFG-E8^−/−). Data are expressed as means ± SEM. *P < 0.05 versus sham; #P < 0.05 versus WT-gut I/R by two-way analysis of variance and Student Newman Keul's test (n = 6 per group).
