Experimental group abbreviations: S sham-operated rat group, S + M sham-operated + meldonium rat group, I/R ischemia/reperfusion rat group, I/R + M ischemia/reperfusion + meldonium rat group. The number of animals per experimental group: n = 8. The data are given as mean ± standard error of the mean. Minimal significant level: p < 0.05. Significantly different: ^ain respect to S group; ^bin respect to I/R group.
