Cardioprotective effect of ghrelin in cardiopulmonary bypass involves a reduction in inflammatory response.
BACKGROUND: Ghrelin has been reported to protect the cardiovascular system; however, the cardioprotective effect of ghrelin against cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) induced myocardial injury are unclear. In this study, the protective effect of ghrelin on CPB induced myocardial injury and the underlying...
