Cardioprotection and ageing [PDF]
With an increase in the elderly population and an increase in the prevalence of age-related cardiovascular disease, anesthesiologists are increasingly being faced with elderly patients with known or suspected ischemic heart disease in the perioperative ...

Objectives In pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), right ventricular (RV) dysfunction develops via mechanisms involving oxidative stress. Moderate and chronic red wine (RW) consumption reduces oxidative stress and confers cardioprotection but its ...

Perioperative cardioprotection [PDF]
Although anaesthesia itself is now very safe, perioperative cardiac complications during non-cardiovascular surgery are a major cause of morbidity and mortality, because of the increasingly high underlying prevalence of cardiovascular disease. Fortunately, although there is no "magic bullet", pharmacological intervention can reduce the risk.

Anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity: targeting high-density lipoproteins to limit the damage?
Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anthracycline antibiotic frequently used against a wide range of cancers, including breast cancer. Although the drug is effective as a treatment against cancer, many patients develop heart failure (HF) months to years following ...

Ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase core protein 1 may be involved in delayed cardioprotection from preconditioning induced by diazoxide. [PDF]
This study aimed to use long-term diazoxide treatment to establish a loss-of-cardioprotection model and then perform proteomics analysis to explore which proteins of mitochondrial inner membrane (MIM) are potentially involved in delayed cardioprotection.

Mitophagy for cardioprotection
AbstractMitochondrial function is maintained by several strictly coordinated mechanisms, collectively termed mitochondrial quality control mechanisms, including fusion and fission, degradation, and biogenesis. As the primary source of energy in cardiomyocytes, mitochondria are the central organelle for maintaining cardiac function.

Over the past 2 to 3 decades, several phenomena have been identified that provide powerful protection against myocardial infarction and other sequelae of ischemia/reperfusion1: myocardial hibernation that is related to stunning,2 ischemic preconditioning,3 delayed or second-window ischemic preconditioning,4 ischemic postconditioning,5 and their ...

Myocardial ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury significantly alters heart function following infarct and increases the risk of heart failure. Many studies have sought to preserve irreplaceable myocardium, termed cardioprotection, but few, if any ...
