Clofibrate PPARα activation reduces oxidative stress and improves ultrastructure and ventricular hemodynamics in no-flow myocardial ischemia.

abstract：:Adenosine and verapamil have successfully been used in the treatment of clinical no-reflow after direct angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction. However, their effects on anatomic perfusion defects in experimental myocardial ischemia/reperfusion are unknown. Thus the area of no-reflow (ANR), visualized after in-vi...
