Figure 3 Effect of pimobendan on intracardiac production of TNF- , IL-1ß, and IL-6 measured on day seven after EMC virus inoculation. The intracardiac TNF- and IL-1ß level in animals treated with pimobendan 1 mg/kg (n = 7) were significantly lower than those in the control group (n = 5). * = p < 0.001 versus control. ** = p < 0.01 versus control. The intracardiac IL-6 level in the animals treated with pimobendan 1 mg/kg was also less than in the control group, but the difference did not reach statistical significance.
