Effect of Ghrelin therapy on IL-18, G-CSF, KC and MIP-1α after RI and CI in ileum. Animals were irradiated alone or followed by wounding. Ileum samples at different time points were collected for measuring IL-18, G-CSF, KC and MIP-1α concentrations in ileum (N = 6 per group). The data presented are mean ± sem. *p < 0.05 vs. Sham vehicle group; ^p < 0.05 vs. respective vehicle group; #p < 0.05 vs. RI + V group. V vehicle, GHR Ghrelin, W wounding; RI: 9.5 Gy; CI: 9.5 Gy + wounding
