Effects of compound C (CC) on ATP content in control and postconditioned hearts. Values are mean ± SEM (n = 8) and are expressed as μmol/g dry weight. 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. Ischemic postconditioning was induced by six cycles of 10-s reperfusion interspersed with 10-s no-flow ischemia immediately after sustained ischemia. CC (10 μM) was added to the perfusion medium during the first 5 min of reperfusion. *p < 0.05 versus ischemic, C reperfusion, C + CC reperfusion and IPOC + CC reperfusion. & p < 0.05 versus pre-ischemic
