Acute myocardial infarction is characterized by changes in biochemical properties during ischemia and reperfusion. The heart can survive a short period of ischemia by reducing myocardial contractility, increasing glucose uptake, and switching metabolism to glycolysis. However, considering that the heart is one of the most energy-demanding tissues in the body, sustained oxygen and nutrient deprivationContinue reading “Acute myocardial infarction; imbalance during ischemia-reperfusion ; mitochondrial energy adaption in cancer, obesity and metabolic disorders”
