| Abstract | Angiotensin (Ang)-(1-7) exhibits cardioprotective effects in myocardial ischemia reperfusion (I/|R)-induced injury. However, the roles of oxidation and cyclooxygenase (COX) in the cardioprotection of Ang-(1-7) remain unclear. This study was conducted to investigate whether oxidation and COX were involved in the cardioprotection of Ang-(1-7) against I/|R-induced injury in isolated rat hearts. The hearts were subjected to 15 min regional ischemia followed by 30 min reperfusion. Myocardial I/|R treatment induced significant cardiac dysfunction, including ventricular arrhythmia (VA) and a reduction of left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), cardiomyocyte apoptosis and oxidative stress, manifesting as an increase in malondialdehyde (MDA) production and a decrease in superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. Pretreatment of the hearts with 1.0 nmol/|l Ang-(1-7) for 30 min prior to ischemia considerably attenuated I/|R-induced VA, apoptosis and MDA production, and enhanced LVSP and SOD activity. These cardioprotective effects of Ang-(1-7) were antagonized by the intraperitoneal injection of 5 mg/|kg body weight indomethacin (IDM, a COX inhibitor), presenting as an enhancement of VA, apoptosis and MDA production as well as a reduction of LVSP and SOD activity. In conclusion, COX mediated Ang-(1-7)-induced cardioprotection via its antioxidative mechanism. |

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.
