Angiotensin (Ang) A differs from Ang II in a single N-terminal alanine residue. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the effects of Ang A on postischemic cardiac injury and hemodynamics differ from Ang II. After euthanizing Sprague-Dawley rats, hearts were perfused with Krebs-Henseleit buffer for a 20 min preischemic period with or without Ang A or Ang II, followed by 20 min global ischemia and 50 min reperfusion.
