TNF and myocardial ischemia: Myocardial ischemia—reperfusion significantly increased the serum levels of proinflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α (38.96 ± 4.07 vs. 4.77 ± 1.83 pg/mL in the sham group, p < 0.001, Figure 6A), IL-1β (231.67 ± 15.90 vs. 18.17 ± 4.37 pg/mL in the sham group, p < 0.001, Figure 6B), and IL-6 (5905.45 ± 282.122 vs. 114.45 ± 24.81 pg/mL in the sham group, p < 0.001, Figure 6C).
