Genotype | Arterial blood gas analysis | Mean arterial blood pressure (mmHg) | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
pH | pO2 (torr) | pCO2(torr) | Preischemia | Ischemia | Postischemia | |
SOD1 Tg | 7.39 ± 0.02 | 118.8 ± 11.9 | 44.9 ± 1.6 | 104.0 ± 3.1 | 36.4 ± 0.4 | 125.0 ± 10.0 |
Non-Tg | 7.34 ± 0.03 | 116.4 ± 10.4 | 50.1 ± 3.7 | 102.6 ± 2.2 | 36.8 ± 0.5 | 128.8 ± 4.1 |
All data are expressed as mean ± SE. The arterial samples were collected just after reperfusion. No significant difference was observed between SOD1 Tg rats and non-Tg littermates (n= 5, p > 0.05).
