Ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) events are distinct but interrelated processes etiologic to the most prevalent human diseases. A delicate balance exists whereby ischemic injury can result in beneficial angiogenesis or in detrimental reperfusion injury overwhelming the organism. Here, we describe in vivo models of ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion injury with emphasis on murine hindlimb ischemia models. We also provide a brief introduction to murine myocardial ischemia experiments. Each model is described in the context of human disease. Emphasis is made on the strengths and weaknesses of the available techniques, particularly as it relates to data analysis, interpretation, and translational relevance.

Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) is a mitochondrial fission protein and a viable target for cardioprotection against myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury. Here, we reported a novel Drp1 inhibitor (DRP1i1), delivered using a cardiac-targeted nanoparticle drug delivery system, as a more effective approach for achieving acute cardioprotection. DRP1i1 was encapsulated in cubosome nanoparticles with conjugated cardiac-homing peptides (NanoDRP1i1) and the encapsulation efficiency was 99.

Background: Lung transplantation is the only effective therapeutic option for patients with end-stage lung disease. However, ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) during transplantation is a leading cause of primary graft dysfunction (PGD). Ferroptosis, a form of iron-dependent cell death driven by lipid peroxidation, has been implicated in IRI across various organs.

Background: The identification of new biomarkers that improve existing cardiovascular risk prediction models for acute coronary syndrome is essential for accurately identifying high-risk patients and refining treatment strategies. Autophagy, a vital cellular degradation mechanism, is important for maintaining cardiac health. Dysregulation of autophagy has been described in cardiovascular conditions such as myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, a key factor in myocardial infarction (MI).

Although classical fluorescent dyes feature advantages of high quantum yield, tunable "OFF-ON" fluorescence, and modifiable chemical structures, etc., their bio-applications in deep tissue remains challenging due to their excessively short emission wavelength (that may lead to superficial tissue penetration depth). Therefore, there is a pressing need for pushing the wavelength of classical dyes from visible region to NIR-II window.
