Supports radical scavenging in the myocardial interstitium during ischaemia; leaves open translation beyond isolated animal hearts.
Does the addition of superoxide dismutase and vasoxin improve contractile function and reduce ischaemic membrane damage during cardiac ischaemia?
The myocardial interstitium may be a site of ischaemic membrane damage due to oxygen-derived radicals, which can be mitigated by superoxide dismutase.
Hülsmann et al. (1987) studied this question.
