OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of propofol on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Primary cells were first isolated from rats. The effects of propofol on the apoptosis of primary myocardial cells and the expression of apoptosis-related proteins … Continue reading Effect of propofol on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury through MAPK/ERK pathway
