FIG. 1 Histology of the liver in the control and treatment groups. (A) The I/R group showed extensive panacinar congestion. (B) In control+LT inhibition groups, minimal damage mostly in zone 3 and megamitochondri were seen. (C) In I/R+LT inhibition groups, only zone 2 and/or 3 involvement with megamitochondri and microvesicular fatty change were observed (A, HE staining; original magnification, 100×; B and C, HE staining; original magnification, 200×).

FIG. 2 Histology of the small intestine in the control and treatment groups. (A) The I/R group showed 2/3 of villus loss, apoptotic fragmentation, congestion and lymphatic dilation, villi denudation. (B) In control+LT inhibition groups, limited lymphatic dilation and preservation of villi structures were seen. (C) In I/R+LT inhibition groups, 1/3 loss of villi and superficial epithelial sloughing were seen (HE staining; original magnification, 200×). (Color version of figure is available online.)
