Mechanisms of myocardial reperfusion injury.
- J. L. Park, B. Lucchesi
- Medicine
- The Annals of thoracic surgery
- 1 November 1999
Reperfusion of the ischemic myocardium results in irreversible tissue injury and cell necrosis, leading to decreased cardiac performance. While early reperfusion of the heart is essential in… Expand
Canine Myocardial Reperfusion Injury: Its Reduction by the Combined Administration of Superoxide Dismutase and Catalase
- S. R. Jolly, W. R. Kane, M. Bailie, G. Abrams, B. Lucchesi
- Medicine
- Circulation research
- 1 March 1984
Therapy directed against the toxic effects of reactive oxygen species may reduce the final extent of ischemic injury in otherwise viable tissue irreversibly injured by the abrupt reoxygenation of… Expand
Reduction of the Extent of Ischemic Myocardial Injury by Neutrophil Depletion in the Dog
Accumulation of polymorphonuclear neutrophils during the acute inflammatory response may exacerbate tissue injury through the release of activated oxygen products or proteolytic enzymes or both. To… Expand
Activation of estrogen receptor-alpha protects the in vivo rabbit heart from ischemia-reperfusion injury.
- E. Booth, Nabeel R. Obeid, B. Lucchesi
- Biology, Medicine

Pain associated with inflammation involves prostaglandins synthesized from arachidonic acid (AA) through cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) pathways while thromboxane A2 formed by platelets from AA via… Expand
Myocardial protection with preconditioning.
- G. Li, J. Vásquez, K. Gallagher, B. Lucchesi
- Medicine
- Circulation
- 1 August 1990
Myocardial preconditioning with brief coronary artery occlusions before a sustained ischemic period is reported to reduce infarct size. To determine the number of occlusive episodes required to… Expand
Cardiac Actions of Glucagon
- B. Lucchesi
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Circulation research
- 1 June 1968
Glucagon increased heart rate and contractile force in the anesthetized dog and increased isometric tension in the isolated dog papillary muscle. The positive inotropic and chronotropic responses… Expand
Sulodexide: a renewed interest in this glycosaminoglycan.
- D. A. Lauver, B. Lucchesi
- Medicine
- Cardiovascular drug reviews
- 1 September 2006
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are the most abundant group of heteropolysaccharides found in the body. These long unbranched molecules contain a repeating disaccharide unit. GAGs are located primarily in… Expand
