Informs metabolic targets in ischemic heart disease; leaves open efficacy of substrate-specific therapies in trials.
This review highlights the underappreciated role of amino acids as metabolic substrates that provide cardioprotection and maintain electrical stability during cardiac ischemia.
Drake et al. (2012) conducted a review in Cardiac ischemia. Amino acids was evaluated. Amino acids exert cardioprotective effects and may maintain cardiac electrical conductance and stability during ischemia, though their metabolic role requires further elucidation.
