Experiments were made on Wistar rats with 6h tourniqueting of the hind limbs to study animal survival rate, myocardial contractile function and protective action of antioxidants and egg phospholipid liposomes during ischemic shock. It has been shown that reperfusion of the limbs leads to a high animal lethality, make lower myocardial contractile function and coronary flow of the hearts isolated from rats following a 6h reperfusion of the limbs. Well-known antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene and a new antioxidant tetramethylpiperidine derivative bring animal lethality down and improve coronary flow and contractile function of the isolated heart. Phospholipid liposomes increase survival rate moderately but have no any effect on the heart contractile function. It has been deduced that lipid peroxidation takes part in the disturbance of heart contractile function and genesis of the death within ischemic shock.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality in the US. Studies suggest a role for environmental exposures in the etiology of cardiovascular disease, including exposure to arsenic through drinking water. Arsenic exposure during pregnancy has been shown to have effects on offspring, but few studies have examined impacts on maternal cardiovascular health.

This study investigated how contraction frequency impacts the mechano-energetics of cardiac muscle performing mechanical work. Left-ventricular trabeculae were isolated from rat hearts and mounted in our work-loop calorimeter to assess their function at physiological temperature (37°C) across three stimulation frequencies, 2 Hz, 3.5 Hz and 5 Hz, in a randomised sequence.

This study investigated whether home-based bathing intervention (HBBI) improve muscle strength gain and protect cardiovascular function by short-term resistance training (RT). Thirty-one healthy young men measured the maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) of knee extensor, electrically evoked knee extension torque, and mean arterial pressure (MAP). Then, participants were divided into three groups with matching MVC: shower without bathing (control, n = 10), thermoneutral bathing (36°C-bathing, n = 10), and hot bathing (40°C-bathing, n = 11), and conducted 2 weeks of HBBI.

Background: Regenerative capacity of skeletal muscles decreases with age. Deficiency in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is associated with skeletal muscle weakness as well as epithelial cell senescence. However, whether and how CFTR plays a role in skeletal muscle regeneration and aging were unclear.
