MATERIALS AND METHODS Plant Extract Freshly collected T. cordifolia whole plant was
dried under shade and the dried material was milled to obtain a coarse powder. The …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have an equivocal role in myocardial ischaemia reperfusion
injury. Within the cardiomyocyte, mitochondria are both a major source and target of ROS …

Recent evidence suggests that postischemic myocardial dysfunction (“stunning”) may be
mediated by oxygen free radicals. Various studies have reported the beneficial effects of …

Background Several studies have reported that the antioxidant properties of N‐
acetylcysteine (NAC) can provide cardiac protection through scavenging of free radicals …

Currently, the treatment of reperfusion following ischemia is primarily supportive.
Preventative measures may help in combating the occurrence of ischemia, but minimizing …

Injury during reperfusion can partially offset the benefit of relief of ischemia in myocardial
infarctions rapidly treated with thrombolytic drugs or angioplasty. We assessed whether …

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common, chronic metabolic disease that has
harmful effects on many diverse tissues, including the testis. One of the ways of tissue …

Aims: We evaluated the effect of N-acetylcysteine (NAC, infused iv), isosorbide 5-
mononitrate (IS5MN, by gavage), or their combination on cardiac injury in an in vivo rat …

Fetal undernutrition programmes increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease in
adult life. We hypothesized that prenatal protein restriction would impair recovery in post …
