Hypercholesterolemic myocardium is vulnerable to ischemia-reperfusion injury and refractory to sevoflurane-induced protection. [PDF]
Recent studies have demonstrated that volatile anesthetic postconditioning confers myocardial protection against ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury through activation of the reperfusion injury salvage kinase (RISK) pathway.

Myocardial ischaemia reperfusion injury: the challenge of translating ischaemic and anaesthetic protection from animal models to humans [PDF]
Myocardial ischaemia reperfusion injury is the leading cause of death in patients with cardiovascular disease. Interventions such as ischaemic pre and postconditioning protect against myocardial ischaemia reperfusion injury. Certain anaesthesia drugs and

Breaking the Barrier: Unraveling the No‐Reflow Phenomenon in Cardiovascular Medicine
ABSTRACT The no‐reflow phenomenon is a stubborn and often devastating complication in cardiovascular medicine, where blood flow is restored to an artery, yet the microvasculature remains unresponsive. First identified in 1967, this phenomenon has haunted clinicians and researchers alike, particularly in the context of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Ischemic postconditioning alters the gene expression pattern of the ischemic heart
To profile changes in gene expression in response to ischemic postconditioning, isolated rat hearts were subjected to 30 min of regional ischemia followed by 120 min of reperfusion with or without postconditioning. At the end of reperfusion, cardiac RNA was assayed by DNA microarrays (31,000 format), verified by quantitative real-time polymerase chain

Prospects for Creation of Cardioprotective Drugs Based on Cannabinoid Receptor Agonists [PDF]
Cannabinoids can mimic the infarct-reducing effect of early ischemic preconditioning, delayed ischemic preconditioning, and ischemic postconditioning against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion.

We investigated the regulatory effects of seizure‐induced excitotoxicity and acute hypoxia on the cytoprotective activin A and Ngb systems in the developing mouse brain. Our results demonstrate the differential regulation of Ngb and activin A as a function of time and type of injury and suggest their potential role as biomarkers of excitotoxic and ...

Introduction: Reperfusion injury leads to systemic morphological and functional pathological alterations. Some techniques are already estabilished to attenuate the damage induced by reperfusion. Ischemic preconditioning is one of the standard procedures.

Limb remote ischemic postconditioning protects integrity of the blood-brain barrier after stroke
Integrity of the blood-brain barrier structure is essential for maintaining the internal environment of the brain. Development of cerebral infarction and brain edema is strongly associated with blood-brain barrier leakage.

Remifentanil post-conditioning attenuates cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury via κ or δ opioid receptor activation [PDF]
Background: Ischemic pre- or post-conditioning of the heart has been shown to involve opioid receptors. Remifentanil, an ultra-short-acting selective μ opioid receptor agonist in clinical use, pre-conditions the rat heart against ischemia-reperfusion ...
