KR-31761, a Novel K+ATP-Channel Opener, Exerts Cardioprotective Effects by Opening Both Mitochondrial K+ATP and Sarcolemmal K+ATP Channels in Rat Models of Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Heart Injury

The cardioprotective effects of KR-31761, a newly synthesized K+ATP opener, were evaluated in rat models of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) heart injury. In isolated rat hearts subjected to 30-min global ischemia/30-min reperfusion, KR-31761 perfused prior to ischemia significantly increased both the lef...
