Effect of ischemia–reperfusion (IR) and luminal nutrients in jejunal production of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Jejunal gut sacs were created and filled with 60 mM of arginine (Arg), glutamine (Glut), or magnesium sulfate as an iso-osmotic control and subjected to IR as described in the Materials and Methods section. Representative immunoblot and densitometric analysis demonstrates significantly increased iNOS production in the jejunal gut sacs after IR in the magnesium sulfate and Arg groups as compared with sham controls. There was no significant increase in iNOS production in the Glut group. *P < .05 vs corresponding sham (ANOVA)
