Measurement of immunostaining-positive cardiomyocytes in cold preserved at 1 h before transplanted 3 h. Data are representative of 10 random 200× fields per animal.
p Values estimated by repeated measure one-way ANOVA and one-way ANOVA were a: <0.01 for HTK, b: <0.05 for EC, c: <0.01 for saline, d: <0.05 for EC and e: <0.01 for EC.
