Letter to the Editor: Role of Sarcoplasmic Reticulum in Ischemic Preconditioning

Ischemic Preconditioning by Unstable Angina Reduces the Release of CK-MB Following CABG and Stimulates Left Ventricular HSP-72 Protein Expression

“…Then biopsies were homogenized using a microdismembrator (Braun‐Melsungen, Melsungen, Germany). Whether or not a functional sarcoplasmatic reticulum is a necessary prerequisite for IP is a point at issue 20–22 . However, the prevention of changes in sarcoplasmic reticulum induced by ischemia‐reperfusion is a consistently observed phenomenon of IP 23,24 .…”
