| Abstract | The aim of the present study was to investigate whether a gradually increasing reperfusion algorithm, in which the brief reperfusion was lengthened as the duration of each reperfusion/reocclusion cycle remained fixed, enhances cardioprotection. Rats were randomized into 5 groups: the sham, reperfusion injury (R/I), gradually decreased reperfusion (GDR; 30/1025/1515/2510/30 sec of reperfusion/reocclusion), equal reperfusion (ER; 4 20/20sec reperfusion/reocclusion cycles) and gradually increased reperfusion (GIR; 10/3015/2525/1530/10 sec of reperfusion/reocclusion). The rats were sacrificed to measure serum markers, apoptotic indices and infarct size. Western blot analyses were used to analyze the expression of molecules involved in important signaling pathways. All the three postconditioning patterns were found to provide cardioprotection (P<0.05 compared with the R/I group). GIR provided optimum cardioprotection, followed by ER and then GDR. Apoptotic index and serum marker levels were significantly reduced in the GIR compared with the ER group (P<0.05). The enhanced cardioprotection provided by GIR was accompanied by significantly increased levels of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) phosphorylation and Bcl2, as well as lower levels of p38/cJun Nterminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylation, tumor necrosis factor (TNF ), caspase8, Bax, caspase9 and cytochrome c (Cytc) in the cytoplasm of rats (P<0.05, all compared with ER). The infarct size in the rats of the GIR group was also smaller compared with that in the rats of the ER group, but this difference was not significant (16.30±5.22 vs. 20.57±6.32%, P>0.05). All the variables measured in the present study were significantly improved in the GIR group compared with the GDR group (P<0.05). In conclusion, the association between brief reperfusion and reocclusion is an important factor in postconditioning algorithms. Additionally, GIR results in improved cardioprotection compared with that achieved by the remaining algorithms examined. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
