Focal TLR4 activation mediates disturbed flow-induced endothelial inflammation.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:We determine if action potential duration (APD) shortening and cardioprotection are separable phenomena in ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) openers which protect ischemic myocardium via a glyburide-reversible mechanism.
