TWEAK treatment decreased cardiomyocyte apoptosis post I/R in vivo. A: The cardiomyocyte apoptosis after I/R was reduced by TWEAK (TUNEL staining). The TUNEL staining of myocardium was done at 1, 2 and 3 days after I/R. B: The proportion of apoptotic cardiomyocytes dramatically decreased by 31.2%, 39.6% and 43.9% at 1, 2 and 3 days after I/R, respectively, in TWEAK group (**P<0.05, vs. control group). C: The caspase-3 activity reduced by 57.6%, 63.9% and 52.8% at 1, 2 and 3 days after I/R, respectively, in TWEAK group (**P<0.01, ***P<0.001, vs. control group).
