Epidemiological studies suggest that acute kidney injury has certain effect on myocardial function. In this study, for the first time, we tested a boron compound namely lithium tetraborate an act as anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory agent in ischemia-reperfusion injury. For this, employed vivo rat model with ischemia reperfusion to evaluate cardiac clarify mechanisms of tetraborate. The evalua...

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is highly expressed in heart, but its metabolic regulation effect in rats with myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury is still a controversy. In this study, the cardioprotective effect of PPARα activation in rats with myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury and its relevant mechanism was investigated. Adult male Wistar rats were pretreated wit...

BACKGROUND Several clinical studies have demonstrated that levels of adiponectin are significantly reduced in patients with type 2 diabetes and that adiponectin levels are inversely related to the risk of myocardial ischemia. The present study was designed to determine the mechanism by which adiponectin exerts its protective effects against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion. METHODS AND RESULTS...

introduction: it has been reported that traumas such as transverse abdominal incision before myocardial ischemia result in a significantly decreased infarct size. this phenomenon is named remote preconditioning of trauma. since small skin burn is one of most common traumas, the effect of this injury on ischemia-induced arrhythmias and infarct size was investigated in a rat model of ischemia-rep...

Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury affects not only the cardiomyocyte compartment but also all other cellular compartments, and the coronary circulation has a central role in it. Acute myocardial infarction most often arises from atherosclerotic plaque rupture/erosion with superimposed thrombosis (type 1 myocardial infarction). However, in the absence of coronary atherosclerosis, coronary v...

Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury is one of the most common cardiovascular diseases, and can lead to serious damage and dysfunction of the myocardial tissue. Previous studies have demonstrated that berberine exhibits ameliorative effects on cardiovascular disease. The present study further investigated the efficacy and potential mechanism underlying the effects of berberine on ischemia-rep...

We have previously demonstrated that simvastatin attenuates myocardial cell necrosis after acute myocardial ischemia and reperfusion via induction of endothelial cell NO synthase. However, it remains unknown whether the cardioprotective effects of statins can persist after extended periods of reperfusion. Furthermore, it is unknown whether simvastatin therapy can attenuate postischemic cardiac ...

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the leading cause of death, morbidity, and health costs worldwide. In AMI, a sudden blockage blood flow causes ischemia cell death. Reperfusion after has paradoxical effects may exacerbate injury, process known as ischemic reperfusion injury. this work we evaluated lipidome isolated rat hearts, maintained in controlled perfusion (CT), undergoing global (ISC)...
