The use of adenosine as a trigger for pharmacological preconditioning to protect human myocardium during coronary bypass surgery
Introduction: In former studies on ischaemic preconditioning, adenosine was found to trigger this cardioprotective process. After promising experiments in rabbit hearts and the first clinical use during emergency percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in patients, we started to investigate the ability of adenosine to protect the myocardium during standard cross-clamping bypass surgery. ...
متن کاملAdenosine-mediated cardioprotection in the aging myocardium.
With aging, it appears the heart's ability to withstand injury declines markedly. Unfortunately, the incidence of ischemic disorders increases dramatically with age. Though the genesis of the ischemia-intolerant phenotype is incompletely understood (and likely multi-factorial), it may involve changes in intrinsic cardioprotective responses. In this respect we and others have interrogated the ro...
متن کاملAdenosine stress DECT equivalent to SPECT, MRI for myocardium evaluation
Along with the pharmacologic stress agent, the use of MRI to validate the DECT and SPECT findings was another important addition to the research protocol. Stress/rest MRI is a useful modality for the diagnosis of myocardial ischemia, as it provides sharp visualization of the relevant anatomy and enables physicians to distinguish reversible myocardial ischemia from permanently scarred or infarct...
متن کاملPlasma exosomes protect the myocardium from ischemia-reperfusion injury.
BACKGROUND Exosomes are nanometer-sized vesicles released from cells into the blood, where they can transmit signals throughout the body. Shown to act on the heart, exosomes' composition and the signaling pathways they activate have not been explored. We hypothesized that endogenous plasma exosomes can communicate signals to the heart and provide protection against ischemia and reperfusion inju...
متن کاملTrimetazidine may protect the myocardium during cardiac surgery.
BACKGROUND Trimetazidine is an anti-ischemic agent with cardioprotective effects. The purpose of this double-blind, controlled, prospective randomized study was to investigate the possible effects of the preoperative use of trimetazidine on the biochemical markers of myocardial injury during open heart surgery and to determine if it has any myocardial protective effects. METHODS Thirty patien...
