a Histopathological and morphological variations in the cardiac tissue of mice following sham surgery, sham + rSj-Cys, CLP and CLP + rSj-Cys (n = 6 mice per group, 200× magnification). Treatment with rSj-Cys reduced CLP-sepsis induced myocardial injury in the BALB/c mice. b The levels of cTnI, NT-proBNP, Mb in sera and MPO activity in heart tissue were significantly reduced in CLP mice treated with rSj-Cys. The data are presented as the mean ± SE. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. Scale-bars: 50 μm
