Time courses of the amount of glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) released during hypoxia-reoxygenation. After the first 2 min of reoxygenation (R), the amounts of GOT released were lower in the hearts of the ischemic preconditioning (PR) group (open diamonds) and the PR plus ischemic postconditioning (PT) group (closed triangles) than in the hearts of the control group (closed squares) or PT group (open circles). *P<0.05 versus the control group; ^#P<0.05 versus the PR group; ⁺P<0.05 versus the PT group.
