Cite This Study
Intachai et al. (2018) conducted a review in Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Acetylcholine receptor (AChR) activation was evaluated on Cardioprotection against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. Activation of acetylcholine receptors through electrical and pharmacological interventions is associated with cardioprotective effects against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.
