The p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 blocks adenosine A(1) receptor-induced attenuation of in vivo myocardial stunning.

abstract：:To further evaluate the significance of p38 MAPK as trigger or mediator in ischaemic preconditioning, anisomycin and SB 203580 were used to manipulate its activation status. Special attention was given to the concentration of the drugs and protocols used. The isolated perfused rat heart, subjected to either 25 min glo...
