Comparison of captopril with enalapril in the treatment of heart failure: influence on hemodynamics and measures of renal function.

abstract：PURPOSE:We tested if inhibition of phosphodiesterases (PDEs) with IBMX (1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine) can modulate the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening by inactivating glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β). METHODS:H9c2 cells were exposed to 600 μM H(2)O(2) for 20 min to cause the mPTP opening. ...
