Fatty acid uptake is preserved in chronically dysfunctional but viable myocardium

Maki et al studied free fatty acid (FFA) uptake in the chronically dysfunctional but viable myocardium in patients with an occluded major coronary artery and a corresponding chronic wall motion abnormality but no previous infarction. The results indicate that there is uncoupling of substrate uptake...

Zusammenfassung:Maki et al studied free fatty acid (FFA) uptake in the chronically dysfunctional but viable myocardium in patients with an occluded major coronary artery and a corresponding chronic wall motion abnormality but no previous infarction. The results indicate that there is uncoupling of substrate uptake and mechanical function in the chronically dysfunctional but viable myocardium.
