Figure 2

Representative M-mode images showing cardiac function and left ventricle chamber dimensions in sham, MI, and MI + HPβCD/Ang-(1–7)-treated rats. Note the marked increase in end-systolic dimension (ESD) and in end-diastolic dimension (EDD) after infarction and the improvement in the cardiac function after 50 days in rats treated with HPβCD/Ang-(1–7).
