Tail amputation, bleeding time, amount of bleeding, PLT, HCT, PT, APTT, TT, FIB values in heparin (10 mg/kg intravenously) challenged rats (10 rats at least per group) when treated with BPC 157 (10 μg/kg, 10 ng/kg), L-NAME (5 mg/kg), L-arginine (100 mg/kg) alone or combined, intravenously, immediately after intravenous heparin while controls received simultaneously an equivolume of saline (0.5 ml/kg intravenously). Mean ± SD,

*P<0.05 at least vs. control.
