Figure 1.
(a) Triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining showing infarct size (white zone) in sections taken from hearts after sham surgery or at sham, 6 h and 24 h post permanent LAD ligation surgery. (b) Myocardial infarct size was expressed as a percentage of the left ventricle area (mean±S.E.M. (n=4/groups)). (c) Representative immunoblots showing the expression of apoptotic markers, cleaved casapse-8 and caspase-3 and necroptosis markers, RIP1 and RIP3 in sham hearts compared with tissues taken from hearts at 6 h and 24 h following permanent LAD ligation surgery (n=3 per group)
