Ischemia-reperfusion impairs the initiation of feed artery dilation with muscle contraction and with ACh while conduction along the vessel wall is preserved. Respective components of endothelial cell signaling events may differ in their susceptibility to I-R.

The results showed that the addition of BDM and antioxidants (trolox and deferione) to the bathing solutions improved the preservation of the function, metabolism, and cytoarchitecture of isolated skeletal muscles after cold storage for 16 hr.
