GSI abolished the protective effects of Api-pretreated on cardiac function, CPK and LDH activities, and infarct size against SI/R injury. (a–c) Cardiac function of isolated hearts in terms of LVP and ±dp/dtmax. (d, e) CPK and LDH activities in coronary flow effluent. (f) The infarct size was measured as the percentage of the damaged area. The values are presented as of 10 individual experiments. (a) vs. control group; (b) vs. SI/R group; (c) vs. Api + SI/R group.
