Figure 9

Infarct and collagen-deposition areas in the LV myocardium after the IR procedure. (A–E) Showing the light microscopic finding (400×) of H.E., stain in order to identify the infarct area (white-blue color). Scale bars in the right lower corner represents 20 µm. (F) Analytical result of the infarct area * vs. other groups with different symbols (†, ‡, §, ¶), p < 0.0001. (G–K) Illustrating the microscopic finding (200×) of Sirius red satin for the identification of collagen deposition area (pink color). (L) Analytical result of the collagen deposition area * vs. other groups with different symbols (†, ‡, §, ¶), p < 0.0001. Scale bars in the right lower corner represent 50 µm. All statistical analyses were performed by one-way ANOVA, which was followed by the Bonferroni multiple comparison post hoc test (n = 8 for each group). Symbols (*, †, ‡, §, ¶) indicate significance at the 0.05 level. SC = sham control, IR = ischemia-reperfusion, and Mito = mitochondria.
