Figure 1. Overexpression of decorin improved cardiac function in diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Figure 1

(A) The oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). (B) The left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) evaluated by echocardiography. (C) The fraction shortening (FS) evaluated by echocardiography. (D,E) The left ventricular wall thickness (including the interventricular septum (IVS) and the posterior wall (PW)) and the internal dimension of the left ventricle (LVID). (FH) The hemodynamic function was evaluated by the cardiac catheter system, including the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), as well as the Dp/dt maximum and minimum. All data are presented as the mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.
