Data are mean±SE. Mice were 8 months old (myocardial infarction was induced in 6-month-old animals). HR indicates heart rate; SBP, systolic BP; DBP, diastolic BP; LVEDD, LV end-diastolic diameter; LVESD, LV end-systolic diameter; IVS, interventricular septum; LVPW, LV posterior wall; LVFS, LV fractional shortening; and LVEF, LV ejection fraction.
P<0.05; otherwise, P not significant.
