A–B. Representative Western blot showing the effect of resveratrol on the phosphorylation of AKT (A) & eNOS (B) in streptozotocin induced diabetic ischemic reperfused rat hearts. The hearts (n=6) from each group were isolated and subjected to 30 mins of global ischemia followed by 2 hrs of reperfusion. *p<0.05 groups 2, 3, 4 & 5 vs group 1; †p<0.05 groups 3, 4 & 5 vs group 2; #p<0.05 groups 3 vs group 4 & 5. Where Group 1-control rats, Group 2-diabetic rats, Group 3-diabetic rats treated with resveratrol, Group 4-diabetic rats treated with resveratrol + L-Name, Group 5 -diabetic rats treated with L-Name.
