May guide mitochondrially targeted cardioprotection research; leaves open clinical translation pending prospective trials.
This review highlights the emerging role of mitochondrial PKCε and its targets in protecting the heart from ischemia/reperfusion injury.
Budas et al. (2007) conducted a review in Cardiac ischaemia/reperfusion injury. Protein kinase C epsilon (PKCϵ) was evaluated. Protein kinase C epsilon (PKCϵ) plays a critical role in cardioprotective signaling pathways at the mitochondria to protect the heart from ischemia/reperfusion injury.
