Reactive oxygen species mediate the neuroprotection conferred by a mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel opener during ischemia in the rat hippocampal slice

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known to mediate the protection conferred by the opening of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channels (mitoK ATP) during ischemia in heart, but this has not been demonstrated in brain. The present study examined whether ROS mediate the neuroprotection conferred...
