Infarct size data (A-D) of hearts perfused with sGC stimulator BAY 41­2272 3 µM unless specified, BAY 60­2770 5 nM unless specified and ODQ 2 µM. cGMP measurements (E) of myocardial left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) tissue samples treated with and with without BAY 41­2272 3 µM at 10 min reperfusion. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM, * p<0.05, vs. Control, ** p<0.01, vs. Control (A-D) and ** p<0.01 vs. LV without BAY, ## p< 0.01 vs. RV without BAY (E), n≥6 (One-way ANOVA).
