The effects of pFUS-PNP on cardiac injury marker expression. a TNF-α expression was significantly increased immediately following pFUS exposure at PNP greater than 4 MPa (n = 5). b NT-proBNP expression was significantly enhanced at PNP > 4 MPa immediately following pFUS. pFUS at 6 MPa showed the greatest increase in the NT-proBNP expression. c cTnI expression was not changed following pFUS at any PNPs (n = 4–5). Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05 following ANOVA
