Investigators publish new data in the report 'Cardioprotection: spotlight on PKG.' According to recent research from the United States, "Classical ischaemic preconditioning, delayed or second window preconditioning and postconditioning are forms of cardioprotection that are dependent on cell surface receptors, intracellular signalling molecules and kinases that ultimately block formation of the mitochondrial permeability transition. The latter is presumed to cause myocardial necrosis as well as apoptosis, so prevention of its formation upon resumption of perfusion after a prolonged coronary occlusion should be cardioprotective."
"In all of these forms of...
