Pharmacologic intervention in ischemia‐induced reperfusion injury in the skeletal muscle

Abstract: This article provides a concise review on the potential causes of ischemia-induced reperfusion (I/R) injury and pharmacologic intervention in the skeletal muscle. Special emphasis is placed on the recent observation of the acute ischemic preconditioning phenomenon for prevention of I/R injury in skeletal muscle. Finally, the mechanism of ischemic preconditioning and its clinical applications for augmentation of skeletal muscle tolerance to prolonged ischemic insult are discussed.

“…Our finding here that the cardioprotective effects of PGE1 or PGEO are due to activation of KATP channels and, hence are similar to the cardioprotective effects elicited by ischaemic preconditioning, raises the question whether the anti-ischaemic effects of PGE1 observed in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) are also due to activation of KATP channels. Indeed, ischaemic preconditioning also protects against a subsequent more prolonged ischaemic insult in skeletal muscle, by a mechanism that is thought to involve PKC and the activation if KATP channels (Forrest et al, 1992;Pang et al, 1993;1995 …”

“…These alterations to mi-crocirculation constitute the no-reflow phenomenon. 3,[5][6][7][8][9] Obstruction is progressive, with thrombus formation in the microcirculation, platelet aggregation, and tissue edema. Irreversible damage and loss of limb or of microsurgical flap can result.…”
