Figure 4

(a, b, c) Image (a) of group I (untreated) BIO 14.6 hamsters shows reduced myocardial contractility and progression to dilated cardiomyopathy. The blue arrow indicates thinning of the left ventricle wall. Image (b) of treated BIO 14.6 hamsters reveals slightly reduced myocardial contractility, and preservation of the myocardial wall. Image (c) of wild type hamsters shows preservation of the myocardial wall and no disease state.
