Effect of Selective/Non-selective COX Inhibition on Rosuvastatin-Mediated Protection from Ischemia-reperfusion Induced Endothelial Dysfunction in the Human Forearm Vasculature
Statins can act as preconditioning agents against ischemia reperfusion (IR)-injury through a mechanism involving cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 and the upregulation of prostaglandin synthesis. The following study investigated the effect of selective and non-selective COX inhibition on rosuvastatin-mediated...
