A, a photomicrograph of a small intestinal section from a sham-operated rat; B, a photomicrograph of a small intestinal section from an I/R rat at 2 h after gut ischemia-reperfusion treated with vehicle; C, a photomicrograph of a small intestinal section from an I/R rat at 2 h after gut ischemia-reperfusion treated with ghrelin; D, a photomicrography of a pulmonary section from a sham-operated rat. E, a photomicrography of lung section from an I/R rat at 2 h after gut ischemia-reperfusion treated with vehicle; F, a photomicrography of lung section from an I/R rat at 2 h after gut ischemia-reperfusion treated with ghrelin.
