IOE decreases infarct size and attenuates MI/R injury. (A) Representative images of heart tissues. Normal myocardial tissues are dark red and ischemic myocardial tissues are pale. The MIS was calculated as the ischemic myocardial weight/wet weight of left ventricle ×100%. The levels of (B) CK-MB, (C) LDH and (D) AST in serum. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. n=10. ^##P<0.01 vs. Sham. **P<0.01 vs. MI/R. IOE, Inonotus obliquus extract; MI/R, myocardial ischemia/reperfusion; CK-MB, creatine kinase MB, LDG, lactate dehydrogenase; AST, aminotransferase; MIS, myocardial infarction size.
