Figure 3From: Activation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α protects against myocardial ischaemic injury and improves endothelial vasodilatationHearts from PPARα-/- mice were more susceptible to post-ischaemic damages than those from PPARα+/+ mice. Time of recovery (A) and post-ischaemic recovery of force (B), heart rate (C), and coronary blood flow (D) in hearts from PPARα+/+ and PPARα-/- mice. Data are the mean ± SEM of 6 experiments. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01.Back to article page
