Diazoxide, a K Channel Opener, Prevents Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury in Rodent Pancreatic Islets
Diazoxide (DZ) is a pharmacological opener of ATP-sensitive K + channels that has been used for mimicking ischemic preconditioning and shows protection against ischemic damage. Here we investigated whether diazoxide supplementation to University of Wisconsin (UW) solution has cellular protection dur...
