Effects of L-VNIO and MnTBAP on IR-induced cardiac infarct size. Cardiac infarct size was measured as described in “Methods”. Results are expressed as mean percentage of infarct size to risk area. WT denotes wild type and KO denotes nNOS^−/−. Open circles denote individual mice whereas solid circles denote mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 compared with the WT Sham group, ¶P < 0.05 compared with the WT IR group, †P < 0.05 compared with the WT IR + LVNIO group, §P < 0.05 compared with the KO IR group
