(a) Bar graph showing infarct size of control (open bars) and AdLDLr-treated (closed bars) C57BL/6 LDLr−/− mice 7 days and 28 days after permanent ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Infarct size (%) was calculated by dividing the sum of midline infarct lengths from all sections by the sum of midline LV circumferences from all sections and multiplying by 100. (b) Bar graph showing infarct area of control (open bars) and AdLDLr-treated (closed bars) C57BL/6 LDLr−/− mice 7 days and 28 after MI. Data are expressed as means±s.e.m. (n=15–22 per group).
