Effect of the selective inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor 1400w on membrane type-1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) production in arginine filled gut sacs after ischemia–reperfusion (IR). Jejunal gut sacs were created and filled with arginine and 1400w or vehicle as described in the Materials and Methods section. MT1-MMP production was assessed by Western immunoblot. MT1-MMP was significantly increased in the Arg gut sacs after IR. This effect was inhibited by the addition of the selective iNOS inhibitor 1400w. *P < .05 vs sham vehicle; #P < .05 vs IR vehicle (ANOVA).
