background: it has been reported that the chronic oral administration of garlic homogenate protected the rat heart from in vitro ischemic reperfusion injury. however, the biological effects of garlic juice on the heart are expected to be different from oral administration of it. objective: the present study was designed to investigate the effect of garlic juice on the isolated rat heart in isch...

The protective effect of erythropoietin (EPO) on intestinal ischemic/reperfusion injury has been less studied. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate whether EPO has protective effects on the intestinal ischemic/reperfusion injury in rabbits. Thirty healthy male New Zealand white rabbits underwent clamping of the superior mesenteric artery for 60 minutes. Then, the animals were...

Brief episodes of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR) employed during reperfusion after a prolonged ischemic insult may attenuate the total ischemia-reperfusion injury. This phenomenon has been termed ischemic postconditioning. In the present study, we studied the possible effect of ischemic postconditioning on an ischemic reperfusion (IR)-induced myocardium oxidative injury in rat model. Resu...

Despite the latest advances in cardiovascular biology and medicine, myocardial infarction (MI) remains one of major causes deaths worldwide. While reperfusion myocardium is critical to limit ischemic damage typical a MI event, it detrimental morphological functional changes known as “reperfusion injury.” This complex scenario poorly represented currently available models ischemia/reperfusion in...

The aim of the study is to analyze current views concerning interrelations between state intestinal microbiota and course ischemic-reperfusion brain injury. 
 Conclusion. Literary data are indicative disputable scientific opinions existing nowadays role dysbacteriosis (neuroprotective or neurodegenerative) in ischemic injuries. Meanwhile, studies common evidenced disturbances T-cell homeos...

Renal ischemia and reperfusion during aortic and renal transplant surgery result in ischemic-reperfusion injury. Ischemic preconditioning and adenosine infusion before ischemia protect against ischemic-reperfusion injury in cardiac and skeletal muscle, but these protective phenomena have not been demonstrated in the kidney. Rats were randomized to sham operation, 45-min renal ischemia, ischemic...

background: stroke is the third leading cause of invalidism and death in industrialized countries. there are conflicting reports about the effects of angiotensin ii on ischemia-reperfusion brain injuries and most data have come from chronic hypertensive rats. in this study, hypotensive and non-hypotensive doses of candesartan were used to investigate the effects of angiotensin ii at1 receptor b...

OBJECTIVES Remote ischemic perconditioning is the newest technique used to lessen ischemia/reperfusion injury. However, its effect in hypertensive animals has not been investigated. This study aimed to examine the effect of remote ischemic perconditioning in spontaneously hypertensive rats and determine whether chronic treatment with Olmesartan could influence the effect of remote ischemic perc...

Objective: Previous studies reported that asafetida from Ferula assa-foetida Linn. species and its essential oil (AEO) have antioxidant effects. In the present study, the effect of AEO was evaluated on ischemic-reperfusion injury in isolated rat hearts. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight male Wistar rats were divided into 6 groups: 1) control group, 2) vehicle group, 3-5) AEO groups and, 6) car...
