OT alleviated cardiac hypertrophy caused by ISO administration along with up-regulation of lncRNA GAS5 expression. SD rats were treated with ISO and different concentrations of OT as described. (A) HW/BW ratio. (B−D) The expressions of BNP, β-MHC and α-SMA mRNA detected by qRT-PCR. (E) Quantitative morphometric analysis of Masson’s trichrome staining representing myocardial fibrosis. (F) Effects of OT (3 ug/kg) postconditioning on the expression of lncRNA GAS5. (G) Representative histopathological images of heart tissue sections stained with H&E, Masson’s Trichrome staining from the indicated groups. n = 3–6 rats per experimental group. Data shown as mean ± sd, *p < 0.05 **p < 0.01.
