TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-17A levels in the liver and jejunum in mice subjected sham operation, unilateral (UNx) or bilateral (BNx) nephrectomy or renal ischemia and reperfusion (RIR)

TNF-α IL-6 IL-17A

Liver (pg/mg protein) (pg/mg protein) (pg/mg protein)
Sham 5 hrs 5.5±0.1 (4) 26.2±17.4 (4) 3.2±1.9 (4)
BNx 5 hrs 192.6±33.2 (4)* 356.8±38.4 (4)* 38.8±5.6 (4)*
RIR (30 min) 5 hrs 233.0±29.3 (4)* 137.5±13.8 (4)* 31.9±4.6 (4)*
Jejunum (pg/mg protein) (pg/mg protein) (pg/mg protein)
Sham 5 hrs 6.4±4.1 (4) 5.2±3.0 (4) 6.2±2.1 (4)
BNx 5 hrs 104.2±18.3 (4)*# 156.6±39.7 (4)*# 143.6±28.3 (4)*#
RIR (30 min) 5 hrs 107.9±20.2 (4)*# 31.7±2.3 (4)*# 96.6±6.1 (4)*#

The data are presented in the mean ± S.E.M.

TNF-α = tumor necrosis factor alpha, IL-6 = interleukin 6, IL-17A = interleukin 17A.
