Effects of CAPA treatment on body weight and heart weight. After I/R, the body weight (A), heart weight (B), and heart/body weight ratio (C) were calculated. For chronic treatments, the animals were divided into three groups: control, age- and sex-matched normal rats, n = 16; STZ-vehicle, age- and sex-matched diabetic animals administered distilled water orally for 4 weeks starting 4 weeks after STZ induction, n = 13; and STZ-CAPA, CAPA 1 mg/kg administered orally once daily for 4 weeks starting 4 weeks after STZ induction, n = 6. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. ***P < 0.001 compared with control group.
