Changes in calcium handling in atrophic heterotopically isotransplanted rat hearts.

abstract：:Although it has long been recognized that thyroid hormone is an effective positive inotrope, its efficacy in supporting hemodynamics in the acute setting of ischaemia and reperfusion (R) without worsening reperfusion injury remains largely unknown. Thus, we investigated the effects of triiodothyronine (T3) on reperfus...
