Endothelial Dysfunction and Vascular Preconditioning
Journal of Biological Research, 2003 The prolonged occlusion of a coronary artery followed by reperfusion causes deleterious effects known as “ischemiareperfusion injuries”. In fact, these injuries,which affect both myocardium and coronary endothelium, initiate during ischemia and worsen ...

Phosphorylation by protein kinase C and the responsiveness of Mg2+-ATPase to Ca2+ of myofibrils isolated from stunned and non-stunned porcine myocardinm [PDF]
, 1997 Previously we showed in an in situ porcine model that the thiadiazinone derivative [+]EMD 60263, a Ca2+ sensitizer without phosphodiesterase III inhibitory properties, increased contractility more profoundly in stunned than in non-stunned myocardium ...
