Tadalafil improved in vivo left ventricular (LV) function of infarcted hearts: LV‐ESD (A), LV‐EDD (B), LV‐ESV (C), LV‐EDV (D), LV‐EF (E), and LV‐FS (F) were assessed by echocardiography in control and MSCs transplanted ± tadalafil groups after 2 weeks and 1 month post‐treatment. At 7 days, both SDF‐1α (G) and NO (H) levels (ELISA assay), iNOS, p‐GSK β, Bcl‐xl, Bcl‐2, total‐Akt, and Fas expressions (western blots, I) were assessed in LV tissues extracts in control and MSCs transplanted ± tadalafil groups. Values are mean ± SE; n = 8; P‐value <0.05 is significant.
