The Blockade of Transmembrane Cl- Flux Mitigates I/R-Induced Heart Injury via the Inhibition of Calpain Activity

Aims: The aim of this study was to determine whether calpain is involved in Cl- -induced myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Methods: Isolated rat hearts were subjected to either 45 min of global no-flow ischemia followed by reperfusion or successive perfusion with Ca2+ -free KH solution f...
