Myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (IR) injury is a major cause of death worldwide and remains a disease for which current clinical therapies are strikingly deficient. While the production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species...
The nitric oxide (NO)-protein kinase G (PKG) pathway has been known for some time to be an important target for cardioprotection against ischaemia/reperfusion injury and heart failure. While many approaches for reducing infarct...
