Emphasizes need for myocardial quiescence during early reperfusion to enable ATP recovery; leaves open translation to clinical antiarrhythmic strategies.
How do ischemia and reoxygenation affect glycolytic reactions and adenosinetriphosphate levels in heart muscle?
Myocardial ischemia rapidly depletes glycogen and ATP, and successful ATP recovery during reperfusion is dependent on preventing cardiac activity.
Danforth et al. (1960) studied this question.
