Comparative Study
Comparison of cardioprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of ischemia pre- and postconditioning in rats with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.
To compare cardioprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of ischemia preconditioning (IPC) and ischemia postconditioning (IPOC) in a rat myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) model. ⋯ In the rats with myocardial IRI in vivo, both IPC and IPOC can produce significant cardioprotective and anti-inflammatory effects. However, cardioprotective and anti-inflammatory effects provided by IPOC are weaker than with IPC.
