Fig. 3. (A) Glycogen and (B) free glucose levels in the cod (Gadus morhua)
perfused heart subjected to either normoxic or hypoxic conditions, with or
without 5 mmol l-1 glucose, or hypoxic conditions with 5 mmol
l-1 glucose and 25 µmol l-1 cytochalasin B in the
medium. These levels were taken after 120 min or immediately after the heart
failed. All values are means ± S.E.M. and
N=611 fish. *Significantly different from normoxia
+ glucose group (P<0.05). In the normoxic without glucose group,
free glucose levels were not significantly different when compared with the
normoxic with glucose group (P=0.054).
