Altered response to ibutilide in a heart failure model.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The sequelae of myocardial ischaemia can in principle be alleviated by repeated reperfusion, but the accumulation of adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and the loss of interstitial adenosine may lead to adenylate depletion. Repeated oxidative stress could predispose the heart to reperfusion injury. The aim of this...
