Molecular basis of cardioprotection: signal transduction in ischemic pre-, post-, and remote conditioning

G Heusch - Circulation research, 2015 - Am Heart Assoc
Reperfusion is mandatory to salvage ischemic myocardium from infarction, but reperfusion
per se contributes to injury and ultimate infarct size. Therefore, cardioprotection beyond that …
