Myocardial mitochondrial functionwas depressed slightly 60 rain after ischemia but significantly 60 min after reperfusion.Increasedlipid peroxides content and decreased activity of SOD were observed at 60 rain after ischemia.Af-ter reperfusion,the activity of SOD continued decreasing,and LPO elevated still further.Theseresults support the hypothesis that free radicals may contribute to myocardial reperfusion injury.展开更多
