Functional parameters of mitochondria from buffer-perfused rat hearts subjected to I/R or TMP without or with iPoCo or T3, respectively, at reperfusion. Mitochondria were isolated from n = 7–8 hearts per group (for the respective measurements, see single data points). Data are presented as means ± standard deviations. ADP adenosine diphosphate, ASC ascorbate, ATP adenosine triphosphate, CRC calcium retention capacity, iPoCo ischemic post-conditioning, I/R 30 min ischemia and 120 min reperfusion with Krebs–Henseleit buffer, ROS reactive oxygen species, T3 300 µg/L triiodothyronine given at reperfusion or at the corresponding time point in TMP experiments, TMP time-matched perfusion without I/R, TMPD tetramethylphenylenediamine; *p < 0.01 vs. all other groups; one-way ANOVA with Fisher’s least significant differences post-hoc tests
