Figure 7. Effect of PCI on Myocyte Diameter and Nuclear Density in Hibernating Myocardium.

Figure 7

Untreated animals exhibited cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and a reduction in myocyte nuclear density. Four weeks after revascularization, myocyte nuclear density increased and myocyte diameter decreased, suggesting new myocyte formation. Abbreviations as in Figure 1.
