Glycogen content of hearts subjected to ischemia-reperfusion. Values are mean ± SEM (n = 8) and are expressed as μg glycogen/100 mg dry weight. Open bars fed hearts, filled bars fasted hearts. Pre-ischemic refers to the end of the 25-min pre-ischemic period. Ischemic refers to the end of the 25-min ischemic period. Reperfusion refers to the end of the 30-min reperfusion period. C control hearts. IPOC postconditioned hearts. a, p < 0.01 versus pre-ischemic in the same nutritional condition; b, p < 0.01 versus fed pre-ischemic; c, p < 0.01 vs. C reperfusion in the same nutritional condition
