Values are means ± SE and were obtained at the end of the stabilization (Control) and at the end of the 10-min period of drug perfusion, prior to ischemia. LVDP, left ventricular developed pressure; +dP/dt, maximal rate of pressure development; t1/2, half relaxation time; MAPD90, monophasic action potential duration at 90% repolarization; MPG, mercaptopropionylglycine; APO, apocynin; l-NAME, NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester.
