Rosiglitazone protection against experimentally-induced intestinal ischemia/re-perfusion
Several studies have shown that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-g (PPARg) agonists protect against ischemia/re-perfusion (I/R) damage in different organs. This study was carried out to assess the possible role of PPARg on intestinal I/R-mediated tissue injury. This was achieved by evaluating the effects of the PPARg agonist rosiglitazone and the PPARg antagonist bisphenol A...
