The Influence of Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury on the Jejunum

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) after free tissue transfer of the small intestine results in transmural tissue damage. This study examined the effects of IRI on the jejunum. Wistar rats served either as controls (N = 10) or underwent clamping of the infrarenal aorta for 1 hour followed by 1 hour of reperfusion (N = 10). Both ischemia and reperfusion reduced the protein and deoxyribonucleic acid content of the jejunal mucosa (p
