Antiapoptotic Effect of Simvastatin Ameliorates Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury
Figure 3
(a) shows the difference in mean ± SEM values of total severity scores in the six experimental groups. (b) Photomicrograph of heart section of normal rats shows the normal architecture. The section is stained with Haematoxylin and Eosin (×10). (c) Photomicrograph of cardiac section for the control vehicle group showed interstitial edema, hemorrhage, and PMN infiltration. The section is stained with Haematoxylin and Eosin (×40). (d) Photomicrograph of cardiac section in Simvastatin treated group. The section showed almost normal cardiac tissue; the section is stained with Haematoxylin and Eosin (×40).
