Fig. 6.
Time-dependent changes in GTPCH-1 (A) and eNOS (B) protein expression in CON rats and in rats subjected to APC, before PreOcc and during Occ, and after reperfusion (60 and 90 min). Representative western blots are shown above the summary data. Data are expressed as mean ± SE. *P < 0.05 versus PreOcc baseline; †P < 0.05 versus control at the same time point. APC = anesthetic preconditioning; CON = control; eNOS = endothelial nitric oxide synthase; GTPCH-1 = guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase; Occ = coronary artery occlusion; PreOcc = before Occ.
