Evidence of increased apoptosis at 72 hr following CRI. Quantification of apoptotic cells was performed by a pathologist in a blinded fashion at 24 (a), 48 (b) and 72 hr (c) post-injury. Sham animals had median scores of 0 apoptotic cells present at all time points. Burn injury alone had median scores of 2, 1 and 0 at 24, 48 and 72 hr respectively. Radiation alone animals had a median score of 1 and 2 at 24 hr and 48 hr respectively. Apoptosis remained elevated at 72 hr with a median score of 2. Apoptotic cells were persistently elevated following CRI, with values of 3, 4 and 3 at 24, 48 and 72 hr respectively. Data are shown as median with range. * p < 0.05 vs. SHAM. # p < 0.05 vs. BURN. Representative of three experiments per time point, n=8-14 animals per injury group.
