The editors have invited investigators at the forefront of ongoing  research to provide their scholarly and candid comments concerning  each of these issues. This volume includes a comprehensive review of  infarct size reduction with ischemic preconditioning, and the most  recent data on the effects of preconditioning on ischemia and  reperfusion-induced arrhythmias, myocardial metabolism, contractile  function, and the coronary vasculature. The role of altered energy  metabolism, stress-induced proteins, ATP-sensitive potassium channels,  and adenosine -- the major hypotheses that have been proposed to  explain the cardioprotective effects of ischemic preconditioning --  are critically reviewed by investigators who have been instrumental in  developing these concepts. In addition, the editors raise the  intriguing possibility that ischemic preconditioning may be more than  simply a laboratory curiosity. Using a multidisciplinary approach,  this volume challenges the readers to contribute their own expertise  to address the unanswered questions concerning this endogenous,  cardioprotective phenomenon.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461361145\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-2602-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 196\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398564114572,"sku":"9781461361145","price":153.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461361145.jpg?v=1755437542","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781461361145","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
