Figure 8. Comparative effects of OPostC and DigPostC on Left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP, A) recovery and LDH release (B).
Mice hearts were retroperfused in Langendorff mode and subjected to 40 min of global ischemia and 30 min of reperfusion without postconditioning treatment (IR), or following exposure to ouabain postconditioning (OPostC) or digoxin preconditioning (DigPostC) according to the protocols described in Figure 1. Values are means ± SEM (n=5–6). *** P<0.001 vs. IR.
