Background: Myocytes exposed to stress exhibit significant swelling and reduced contractility. These consequences are ameliorated by adenosine triphosphate–sensitive potassium (KATP) channel opener diazoxide (DZX) via an unknown mechanism.

HSP90-Mediates Liraglutide Preconditioning-Induced Cardioprotection by Inhibiting C5a and NF-κB
Objective We previously showed that HSP90 is involved in postconditioning cardioprotection by inhibiting complement C5a. Here, we investigated whether HSP90-mediated C5a/NF-κB inhibition is responsible for the cardioprotection conferred by liraglutide ...

Melatonin in Heart Failure: A Promising Therapeutic Strategy?
Heart failure is a multifactorial clinical syndrome characterized by the inability of the heart to pump sufficient blood to the body. Despite recent advances in medical management, poor outcomes in patients with heart failure remain very high.

Previous studies implicate extracellular adenosine signaling in attenuating myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury (IRI). This extracellular adenosine signaling is terminated by its uptake into cells by equilibrative nucleoside transporters (ENTs ...

Defective high-density lipoprotein lipoprotection in type 2 diabetes during acute myocardial infarction is rescued by apolipoprotein M/sphingosine-1-phosphate loading. [PDF]
Abstract Aims Mortality of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is tremendous and massively increased compared to non‐T2D individuals. The reasons are unclear. High‐density lipoprotein (HDL) conducts lipoprotection during AMI, leading to improved outcomes.

Opioid-induced Cardioprotection [PDF]
Ischemic heart disease and myocardial infarction continue to be leading causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Activation of opioid, adenosine, bradykinin, adrenergic and other G-protein coupled receptors has been found to be cardioprotective.

Sevoflurane and cardioprotection [PDF]
The authors hypothesize that the cardioprotective effect of sevoflurane administered throughout CABG operation may be time- and dose-dependent.
