The protection of the myocardium from injury of acute ischemia and reperfusion: the effects of salvia miltiorrniza (dan shen) / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

The experimental materials were rabbit hearts. The adenylates were measured by HPLC, the levels of lipoperoxidation were determined by spectrophotometry, and atomic absorption spectrophotometry was used for measurement of myocardial calcium. The study showed that in the reperfused group ATP, ADP, AMP, AN (total adenylates concentration), ATP/ADP, ATP/AMP and the energy charge were much lower in the ischemic area than those in the non-ischemic area and ischemic area of the ischemic group (Ⅰ) and Dan Shen group (D) (P
