Abstract:
:Ranolazine, an inhibitor of the late current of the cardiac action potential (late I(Na)), is a well established clinical treatment for chronic angina. The late INa in cardiac myocytes also plays an important role in the pathophysiology of acute myocardial ischemia and reperfusion, and thus is a potential therapeutic target to ameliorate consequences of myocardial infarction. In experimental animal models, ranolazine has been shown to reduce myocardial infarct size, improve left ventricular function, decrease ischemia/reperfusion-induced arrhythmias and improve outcome in heart failure. Here we focus specifically on data from in vivo animal studies of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion.
