Myocardial apoptosis and ischemic preconditioning [PDF]
Cardiovascular Research, 2002 Necrosis and apoptosis are two forms of cell death in the myocardium that have been associated with ischemia and reperfusion. Although it has been well documented that necrosis, as a major form of myocyte cell death, rapidly leads to a destruction of a large group of cells after myocardial ischemia and reperfusion, the induction of apoptosis in ...

Ischemic Preconditioning Suppresses Ventricular Tachyarrhythmias After Myocardial Revascularization [PDF]
Circulation, 2002 Background— Ventricular fibrillation (VF) and tachycardia (VT) are the common and potential life-threatening complications after CABG. Ischemic preconditioning (IP) has been proved effective in reducing ischemia reperfusion arrhythmia in animals and humans.

Unique Transcriptional Profile of Sustained Ligand-Activated Preconditioning in Pre- and Post-Ischemic Myocardium [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: Opioidergic SLP (sustained ligand-activated preconditioning) induced by 3–5 days of opioid receptor (OR) agonism induces persistent protection against ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury in young and aged hearts, and is mechanistically distinct

Transient limb ischemia induces remote ischemic preconditioning in vivo [PDF]
, 2002 Background-Ischemic preconditioning reduces local tissue injury caused by subsequent ischemia-reperfusion (IR), but may also have a salutary effect on IR injury of tissues remote from those undergoing preconditioning.

Non-ischemic myocardial preconditioning
Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 1998 The reduction of infarct size produced by brief ischemic episodes prior to a sustained occlusion of a coronary artery, called ischemic preconditioning, is a well known phenomenon that occurs in several species, but its mechanism is still under investigation.

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Neither Improves Survival nor Reduces Myocardial or Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) [PDF]
, 2020 BACKGROUND: Peri-interventional myocardial injury occurs frequently during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). We assessed the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on myocardial injury, acute kidney injury (AKIN) and 6-month ...

Endothelial preconditioning by transient oxidative stress reduces inflammatory responses of cultured endothelial cells to TNF-α [PDF]
, 2000 Brief episodes of ischemia can render an organ resistant to subsequent severe ischemia. This ‘ischemic preconditioning’ is ascribed to various mechanisms, including oxidative stress. We investigated whether preconditioning exists on an endothelial level.

The heartbreak of depression: 'Psycho-cardiac' coupling in myocardial infarction [PDF]
, 2017 Ample evidence identifies strong links between major depressive disorder (MDD) and both risk of ischemic or coronary heart disease (CHD) and resultant morbidity and mortality. The molecular mechanistic bases of these linkages are poorly defined. Systemic
