Increased levels of serum IgM and IgG in mice with post-ischemic heart failure. Serum IgM (A) and IgG (B) concentrations in post-ischemic heart failure (HF) or sham-operated (Sh) mice were tested by ELISA 7 weeks after surgery. Data for non-manipulated age-matched control C57BL/10 mice are also presented (Ct). Data are reported as means ± SD for at least 5 mice per group. *P < 0.0001, HF mice vs Ct and Sh mice (Kruskal-Wallis test).
