Myocardial Reperfusion Injury - Metabolism
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Myocardial Reperfusion Injury'Damage to the MYOCARDIUM resulting from MYOCARDIAL REPERFUSION (restoration of blood flow to ischemic areas of the HEART.) Reperfusion takes place when there is spontaneous thrombolysis, THROMBOLYTIC THERAPY, collateral flow from other coronary vascular beds, or reversal of vasospasm. Common names: Myocardial Reperfusion Injury; Injuries, Myocardial Reperfusion; Myocardial Reperfusion Injuries; Reperfusion Injuries, Myocardial; Reperfusion Injury, Myocardial; Injury, Myocardial Reperfusion; Myocardial Ischemic Reperfusion Injury |

BACKGROUND: Methadone is an opioid agonist often given to manage acute and chronic pain. We sought to determine whether methadone compared with morphine dose dependently reduces myocardial infarct size (IS) and whether the mechanism is delta-opioid ... Read more...
2 Sep 2009 The aim of the present study was to investigate if hyperlipidemia interferes with the infarct size-limiting effect of postconditioning and to study the involvement of peroxynitrite in this phenomenon. Rats were fed a 2% cholesterol-enriched or ... Read more...
O-GlcNAc signaling attenuates ER stress-induced cardiomyocyte death.
2 Sep 2009 We previously demonstrated that the O-linked beta-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) posttranslational modification confers cardioprotection at least partially through mitochondrial-dependent mechanisms, but it remained unclear if O-GlcNAc signaling ... Read more...
