Abstract:
Ischemia-reperfusion of the heart leads to the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore(MPTP).Transient opening and subsequent closure of the MPTP may lead to the release of cytochrome c and other proapoptotic molecules.If unrestrained,this will lead to the loss of ionic homeostasis and initiate the cascade of necrotic cell death.Direct or indirect inhibition of MPTP provides protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury.Recent researches have shown that transient low-conductance pore opening also provides protection against reperfusion injury.This review gives summarization of the components,molecular mechanism of MPTP,permeability transition in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion and the relationship between MPTP and ischemic preconditioning.This may lead to better protective strategies against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in the future.
