Ischemic preconditioning preserves connexin 43 phosphorylation during sustained ischemia in pig hearts in vivo

ABSTRACT During myocardial ischemia, connexin 43 (Cx43) is dephosphorylated in vitro, and the subsequent opening of gap junctions formed by two opposing Cx43 hexamers was suggested to propagate ischemia/reperfusion injury. Reduction of infarct size (IS) by ischemic preconditioning (IP) involves acti...
