[ 2 ] - ATP-dependent potassium channels are implicated in simvastatin pretreatment-induced inhibition of apoptotic cell death after renal ischemia/reperfusion injury

Here we evaluate the role of ATP sensitive potassium (KATP) channels in simvastatin induced renal protection after renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Methods: A total of 81 male Wistar rats, were treated with simvastatin (10 and 20mg/kg/day gavage, one week). Some groups received glibenclami...
