Pretreatment with Fer-1 attenuates RV function and capillaries of the RV in MCT-induced rats. (A, B) Representative colour Doppler images of the four chambers and TAPSE in the right ventricle in the sham, sham + Fer-1, MCT, and MCT + Fer-1 groups. (C) Representative microphotographs of right ventricles that were stained with DAPI (blue) and immunostained for CD31 (red). (D-F) Quantification of RVEDD, TAPSE, and RVEF. (G) Bar graph showing the numbers of capillaries in the right ventricles of the different groups of rats. The values represent the mean ± SD. #P > 0.05 versus the sham group, *P < 0.05 versus the sham group, **P < 0.05 versus the MCT group. n = 8–12/group.
