1 Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase Inhibition Reduces Neuronal Apoptosis After Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest  Elaine E Tseng, Malcolm V Brock, Mary S Lange, Mary E Blue, Juan C Troncoso, Christopher C Kwon, Charles J Lowenstein, Michael V Johnston, William A Baumgartner  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 64, Issue 6, Pages (December 1997) DOI: /S (97)

2 Fig. 1 Photomicrographs of hematoxylin-eosin–stained sections of dentate gyrus of hippocampus (original magnification, ×100.) (A) Normal untreated control dog. (B) Dog sacrificed 8 hours after hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) (group 2). Apoptotic cells are indicated with an arrow; apoptotic bodies are indicated with an arrowhead. (C) Dog sacrificed 20 hours after HCA. (D) Dog sacrificed 72 hours after HCA. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) )

3 Fig. 2 Electron micrograph of the hippocampus showing a normal cell adjacent to an apoptotic cell (arrow). An apoptotic body is indicated with an arrowhead. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) )

4 Fig. 3 7-Nitroindazole (7-NI)–reduced apoptosis 8 hours after hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) as seen on hematoxylin-eosin–stained sections. Dentate gyrus at high magnification (original magnification, ×100). (A) Normal untreated control dog. (B) Dog subjected to HCA. Apoptosis is marked with an arrow; an apoptotic body is marked with an arrowhead. (C) Dog subjected to HCA treated with 7-NI. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) )

5 Fig. 4 7-Nitroindazole (7-NI)–reduced apoptosis 8 hours after hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) as seen on terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase–mediated dUTP-biotin nick end-labeling–stained sections. Dentate gyrus at high magnification (original magnification, ×100). (A) Normal, untreated control dog. (B) Dog subjected to HCA. Apoptosis is marked with an arrow; an apoptotic body is marked with an arrowhead. (C) Dog subjected to HCA and treated with 7-NI. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) )

6 Fig. 5 Dentate gyrus of the hippocampus from a dog sacrificed 8 hours after hypothermic circulatory arrest. (A) Photomicrograph of a hematoxylin-eosin–stained section of the entire dentate gyrus (original magnification, ×4.) The structure of the dentate gyrus is noted; apoptosis is not visible at this magnification. (B) Similar magnification of dentate gyrus stained by terminal deoxynucleotidytransferase–mediated dUTP-biotin nick end-labeling (TUNEL) and viewed by dark-field microscopy. The TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells lighted up as white cells against a dark-blue background. (C) High magnification (original magnification, ×40) of dentate gyrus (inset from B) viewed by bright-field microscopy. Apoptotic cells (arrows) stained dark brown, as opposed to normal cells, which stained light blue. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) )

7 Fig. 6 Tympanic membrane temperatures during cooling, hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA), rewarming, and recovery. (CPB = cardiopulmonary bypass; 7NI = 7-nitroindazole.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) )

8 Fig. 7 In vivo measurement of nitric oxide synthase activity as citrulline concentration (μM) over time. (∗∗ = p < 0.05 from baseline; ∗ = p < 0.05 from hypothermic circulatory arrest [HCA] control; CPB = cardiopulmonary bypass; 7NI = 7-nitroindazole.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) )

9 Fig. 8 Quantitative apoptotic score of dogs that underwent hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) alone or HCA and 7-nitroindazole (7NI) treatment. (∗ = p < ) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) )
