Intervention of rosiglitazone on myocardium Glut-4 mRNA expression during ischemia–reperfusion injury in cardio-pulmonary bypass in dogs
During cardiac pulmonary bypass (CPB), myocardial ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) induces heart glucose metabolism impairment. Our previous research showed that the decreased glucose utilization is due to decreased...
