cardioprotection

This article presents: (1) meta analyses of studies of cardioprotection of women and men by statins, including Lipitor (atorvastatin), and (2) a legal analysis of advertising promoting Lipitor as preventing heart attacks.

Pressure unloading during reperfusion caused the most marked reduction in IS whereas pressure loading abolished PC-induced cardioprotection.

Wortmannin (PI3K inhibitor) partially reversed PC-induced cardioprotection, with IS being greater in the high-pressure group.

Postconditioning (PC) and insulin exert cardioprotection by activating phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) signaling.

Because pressure overload exacerbates ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury, we tested the hypothesis that (i) pressure overload attenuates PC - and insulin-induced cardioprotection, an effect caused by reduced PI3K-Akt signaling and (ii) pressure unloading confers cardioprotection comparable to either PC or insulin.
