    Tonic contraction develops in the colon during anaphylactic hypotension in anesthetized rats

    Diarrhea is a gastrointestinal symptom associated with systemic anaphylaxis and could be induced by increased colonic motility. We determined colonic motility and expulsion by measuring the intracolonic pressu...

    Mst1 promotes cardiac ischemia–reperfusion injury by inhibiting the ERK-CREB pathway and repressing FUNDC1-mediated mitophagy

    Cardiac ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury results mainly from mitochondrial dysfunction and cardiomyocyte death. Mitophagy sustains mitochondrial function and exerts a pro-survival effect on the reperfused hea...
