Sevoflurane post-conditioning decreases infarct size which is increased by myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) in rats. (A) Representative TTC-stained images and (B) quantification of the percentage of the injured area. The columns and error bars represent the means ± SD; n=6 experiments. A one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post-hoc test was used to determine statistical significance. *P<0.05 vs. I/R. Sham, sham-operated group; SEVO, sevoflurane group (no I/R injury); I/R, ischemia/reperfusion injury group; SEVOP, sevoflurane post-conditioning group; L-NAME, group treated with NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (NOS inhibitor); TTC, triphenyltetrazolium chloride.
