Protección de la función miocárdica post-isquemia por el vino tinto Cabernet-Sauvignon Argentino. / [Post-ischemic myocardial protection with Cabernet-Sauvignon red wine]

ABSTRACT

The objective was to assess the action of two Argentine (from Mendoza) non-alcoholic red wine extracts (Cabernet-Sauvignon (CS) and a generic control (G)) on myocardial stunning that follows the reperfusion period. In the isolated isovolumically perfused rat heart the recovery of systolic and diastolic functions after 20 min of global ischemia were assessed through left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) and end diastolic pressure (EDP), respectively. After 30 min of reperfusion LVDP recovered to 66 +/- 7
