Heart rate and blood pressure in rabbits treated with recombinant Ad5. Heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) were monitored via cannulation of major ear artery in 3 rabbits injected 3 days earlier with Ad5/CMV/nls-LacZ (group III) and in 3 rabbits similarly treated with Ad5/CMV/Ec-SOD (group IV). Heart rate and blood pressure were recorded before coronary occlusion (time 0) and at 6, 24, 48, and 72 hours after reperfusion.
