Influence of Tumour Necrosis Factor Alpha on the Outcome of Ischaemic Postconditioning in the Presence of Obesity and Diabetes

Figure 2

Effect of obesity on IPostC-induced cardioprotection in isolated TNF-WT hearts. IPostC in TNF-WT with normal diet (ND) reduced infarct size from % in the ischaemic control group (I/R) to % for IPostC. The infarct size in TNF-WT with high carbohydrate diet (HCD) was decreased to % versus % for the I/R group, *** versus I/R; .
