The level of TNF-α and the activity of MPO in pulmonary tissues for different groups of rats.

Notes: The pulmonary tissues of Sham, I/R, Insulin and Insulin/polymer groups rats were collected 24 hours after reperfusion and the level of TNF-α and the activity of MPO measured. Results are expressed as mean ± SD. (A) A significant increase from sham group is denoted by *P<0.01, a significant decrease from I/R groups is denoted by **P<0.01, and a significant decrease from I/R groups is denoted by ***P<0.01. (B) A significant increase from sham group is denoted by *P<0.01, a significant decrease from I/R groups is denoted by **P<0.01, and a significant decrease from I/R groups is denoted by ***P<0.01.

Abbreviations: TNF, tumor necrosis factor; I/R, ischemia/reperfusion; MPO, myeloperoxidase; SD, standard deviation.
