MPO activity was expressed as U/g area at risk (AAR) obtained from the sham + LR, sham + EP50, I/R + LR, and I/R + EP50 groups. Values are the mean ± SD (n = 6 in each group). Sham + LR, sham-operated rats in which no tightening of the left coronary artery was performed; sham + EP50, sham-operated rats in which 50 mg/kg EP was administered intraperitoneally 1 hour before ischemic insult; I/R + LR, rats in which 4 mL LR was administered intraperitoneally 1 hour before ischemic insult; I/R + EP50, rats in which 50 mg/kg EP was administered intraperitoneally 1 hour before ischemic insult. MPO activity, myeloperoxidase activity; I/R, ischemia/reperfusion.; EP, ethyl pyruvate; LR, lactated Ringer's solution. *p < 0.05 vs. sham + LR. p < 0.05 vs. sham + EP50. p < 0.05 vs. I/R + LR.
