background: calcium overload and free radical mediated damage in the mitochondria is the most important pathological changes associated with myocardial ischemic-reperfusion injury. the verapamil post-treatment has been previously reported to prevent reperfusion-induced myocardial injury but functional recovery may be delayed due to the drug's inherent direct myocardial depression effect. in the...

the isolated perfused rat liver (iprl) model has been used into toxicology study of rat liver. this model provides an opportunity at evaluation of liver function in an isolated setting. studies showed that cd, in a dose-dependent manner, induced toxic effects in iprl models, and these effects were associated with aminotransferase activity and lipid peroxidation. the aim of this study was to inv...
