Figure 3 Percentage area of myocardium in the non-infarct zone, peri-infarct zone, and infarct zone stained positive for collagen type I (a) and collagen type III (b) in each group. Percentage immunoreactivity was assessed as a repeat measure in five random fields in each region. Data are represented as mean ± SEM. n = 8. *p < 0.05 versus shams. p < 0.05 versus MI+V. White bars = shams; black bars = MI+V; hatched bars = MI+RWJ-67657.
