Immunohistochemical analysis of caspase 3 in heart sections (magnification × 400). a Control group showing minimal degree of caspase 3 expression. b MP group showing minimal caspase 3 expression. c ISO-intoxicated group showing extensive heavy caspase 3 expression. d MP-pretreated group showing mild caspase 3 expression. e Quantitative image analysis for caspase 3 immunohistochemical staining expressed as optical densities (OD) across 10 different fields for each rat section. Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 10); a or b: significantly different from control or ISO groups respectively at P < 0.05 using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey as post hoc test.
