Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is a complex, multifactorial, and pathophysiological condition with high morbidity and mortality, leading to serious difficulties in treatment, especially in humans. Heme oxygenase (HO) is the rate-limiting enzyme involved in heme catabolism. HO-1 (an indu...
