Abstract

BACKGROUND: Although global ischemia induces troponin I (TnI) degradation, regional ischemia does not. We hypothesized that this disparity is related to preload-induced proteolysis, which varies as a function of the amount of myocardium at risk of ischemia. METHODS AND RESULTS: Isolated rat hearts w...
