Figure 7

Representative images (× 200 magnification) of LV from C+L10 (a) and E+L10 (b) rats immunolabeled for PCNA and counterstained with hematoxylin and eosin. Brown indicates positive staining and arrows point to representative positive cells. (c) Quantification of immunohistochemistry, data presented as the average percent increase in labeled cellsmm−2 from day 0 of l-NAME treatment±s.e.m. Two-way ANOVA: time P<0.05, interaction P<0.05, Bonferroni post-test following two-way ANOVA: *P<0.05 vs. C+L0, ‡P<0.05 vs. C+L day 10. (d) Number of PCNA-positive cells plotted against area of infarct in each LV. Slope of C+L line is significantly non-zero (P<0.05).
