Echocardiography and histological analysis of heart function. a Representative echocardiography of rats following the PBS, Vector-MSCs and IL33-MSC injection for 28 days. b Quantitative analysis of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), and left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD) in different groups. c Representative Masson trichrome staining of the explanted heart showed a reduced fibrosis level in the IL33-MSC injection group (n = 4). Bar, 1 mm. d Percentage of the fibrotic area calculated and averaged by ImageJ software (n = 4)
