Ischemia Reperfusion Injury Produces, and Ischemic Preconditioning Prevents, Rat Cardiac Fibroblast Differentiation: Role of K<sub>ATP</sub> Channels

Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and activation of ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K<sub>ATP</sub>) protect cardiac myocytes from ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury. We investigated the influence of IR injury, IPC and K<sub>ATP</sub> in isolated rat cardiac fibroblasts. Hearts...
