[Protective effect of levothyroxine with oxidative stress reduction mechanism in ischemic preconditioning model in rat heart]

ABSTRACT

Background and Objective: A brief and short duration episode of ischemia is recorded in ischemic preconditioning [IPC]. This latter condition provides a status in which large region of heart is protected when prolonged ischemia occurred. Levothyroxine play a protective role in IPC induction, and simultaneously with stress oxidative. This study was conducted to determine the protective effect of levothyroxine with oxidative stress reduction mechanism in ischemic preconditioning model in rat heart
