Total collagen deposition and collagen composition in the myocardium. (a) Total collagen deposition in the myocardium. Values are given as percent of area stained (mean ± SD). *p < 0.05 vs. control, §p < 0.0001 vs. control. (b) Collagen composition in the three heart regions. MI remote (R), MI border (B), and apical/infarct (A). Values are given as square micrometer stained (mean ± SD). 2 W-MI, myocardial infarction 2 weeks old; 4 W-MI, myocardial infarction 4 weeks old.
