Figure 2

a) CMR images of an infarcted mouse heart showing T2* signal loss from ANX-SPIO; b) CMR of A6-treated, infarcted mouse heart showing a visibly reduced degree of T2* signal loss, compared to VEH control hearts; c) T2* signal loss curves for control animals, as well as MI+A6-treated and MI+VEH hearts. The steeper decay curve of MI+VEH hearts reflects the increased apoptosis and subsequent ANX-SPIO uptake, compared to A6-treated hearts.
