CARDIOPROTECTIVE EFFECTS OF PROLAME AND SNAP ARE RELATED WITH NITRIC OXIDE PRODUCTION AND WITH DIMINUTION OF CASPASES AND CALPAIN-1 ACTIVITIES IN REPERFUSED RAT HEARTS

Cardioprotective effects of Prolame and SNAP are related with nitric oxide production and with diminution of caspases and calpain-1 activities in reperfused rat hearts

Cardiac tissue undergoes changes during ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) that compromise its normal function.Cell death is one of the consequences of such damage, as well as diminution in nitric oxide (NO) content.This signaling molecule regulates the function of the cardiovascular system through dependent and independent effects of cyclic guanosine mono
