Abstract excerpt
In the present study, we used glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor family gene knockout (GITR-KO) mice to evaluate a possible role of GITR on the pathogenesis of splanchnic artery occlusion (SAO) shock, which was induced in mice by clamping the superior mesenteric artery and the celiac artery for 30 min, followed thereafter by release of the clamp (reperfusion). At 60 min after reperfusion,...
