L. GOLLAN 14 animals (Fig. 3). In our cardio-pulmonary arrest model simulating in vivo ischemia, there was no significant change in conversion to XOD activity in the livers of fed animals. However, there was a dramatic increase in hepatic XOD activity in animals subjected to cardiopulmonary arrest (n=32), relative to fasted controls (n=17: Fig. 3). This effect was seen only after a period of hypoxia, but was significant as early as 30 min into the anoxic period. 05) with an increase in water content in the liver after anoxia in the starved/CPA group (51±4%) almost twice that noted in the livers of fed (24±3%), fed/CPA (29±4%), or starved (20±4%) animals.
