Caspase 3 activity in organs. Caspase 3 activity kidney (a), lung (b) and brain amygdala (c), expressed as the percentage of the mean activity observed in the sham group, set to 100% and assessed by in vitro spectrofluorescence after 24 h and 72 h of reperfusion. N = 5/group and asterisk indicates significant difference between both HS groups vs sham group, except for FR+NE group in brain amygdala at 72 h (p < 0.05); dollar sign indicates significant difference between FR vs FR+NE in brain amygdala at 72 h (p = 0.002)
