abstract：:The use of calcium antagonists as cardioprotective agents is based on the assumption that uncontrolled Ca2+ gain is a key factor in causing cell death and tissue necrosis. This uncontrolled gain in Ca2+ is the ultimate expression of a series of metabolic events triggered by inadequate perfusion. One of the early event...
