Acute myocardial ischemia affects both cardiac muscle force development and shortening in the affected regions. The exact mechanisms are unclear. We investigated myocardial function during ischemia and reperfusion both experimentally and with a muscle fiber model. The model was subjected to perturbations in contractility and force activation. Results show that the cardiac muscle model reflects many of the physiological changes observed in myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. Asynchronization between force generation and muscle shortening observed during regional ischemia and reperfusion may be dependent on the extent of their uncoupling.

The absence of an effective imaging tool for diagnosing renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (RIRI) severely delays its treatment, and currently, no definitive clinical interventions are available. Pyroglutamate aminopeptidase-1 (PGP-1), a potential inflammatory cytokine, has shown considerable potential as a biomarker for tracing the inflammatory process in vivo. However, its exact role in the enhanced visualization of RIRI in complex biological systems has yet to be fully established.

A growing body of evidence suggests the involvement of long noncoding ribose nucleic acids (lncRNAs) in acute kidney injury (AKI). This study focused on the mechanistic role of lncRNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 12 (SNHG12) in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-mediated AKI. A model of hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) was created using human kidney cells (HK-2).

Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (RIRI) is a primary cause of acute kidney injury (AKI), frequently resulting in high mortality rates and progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic potential of total saponins from Panax notoginseng (PNS) in the context of RIRI. Utilizing a murine RIRI model, the efficacy of PNS was evaluated, demonstrating a significant reduction in renal inflammation and cellular pyroptosis.

Calycosin‑7‑O‑β‑D‑glucoside (CG), a major active ingredient of Astragali Radix, exerts neuroprotective effects against cerebral ischemia; however, whether the effects of CG are associated with mitochondrial protection remains unclear. The present study explored the role of CG in improving mitochondrial function in a HT22 cell model of oxygen‑glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R). The Cell Counting Kit‑8 assay, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence and western blotting were performed to investigate the effects of CG on mitochondrial function.
