Abstract:BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial infarction occurs due to a sudden decrease in coronary blood flow caused by coronary artery embolism, coronary dissection, or coronary vasospasm. The Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is the most potent endogenous vasoconstrictor; it is synthesized and released from vascular and endocardial endothelial cells and myocytes. The action of ET-1 induces endothelial dysfunction in the coronary circulation through several mechanisms, such as reduced NO pathway activity, increased oxidative stress and i… Show more
“…Then one week later, rats were treated with Ram (3 mg kg −1 day −1 , orally) for six weeks. 25 Van group. Rats were injected with ISO (150 mg kg −1 , SC) twice at a 24 h interval.…”
Background Myocardial infarction (MI) is a major health problem associated with high morbidity and mortality. Recently, angiogenesis has emerged as a novel therapeutic approach against ischemic diseases including MI. Therefore,...
