Abstract:
AIM: To study the role of nitric oxide and endothelin in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) and effect of ligustrazini (LGT). METHODS: The rabbits were randomly divided into three groups (n=10, in each ),sham operated group( A ),MIR group( B ) and LGT group(C).Plasma nitric oxide products( NOP,in terms of NO - 2/NO - 3 ) contents,endothelin (ET) levels,and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities were measured before ischemia, 40 minutes after ischemia and 20 minutes after reperfusion.Meanwhile NOP, ET concentrations and LDH activity in myocardium were measured ,and the ultrastructure changes in myocardium were observed under electron microscope at 20 minutes after reperfusion. RESULTS: As compared with group A,NOP decreased and ET as well as LDH increased at 40 minutes (P
