Fig. 2. Time course for developed left ventricular pressure (LVP) before, during, and after global ischemia in ischemia–reperfusion alone (I/R), anesthetic preconditioning (APC), with or without the ROS scavengers tiron (APC + TIR, TIR) or MnTBAP (APC + TBAP, TBAP). Developed LVP was least reduced in APC-treated groups on reperfusion. *P < 0.05 versus  I/R. Other details in text.
