Research Abstract |
We tried to elucidate the role of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1α in ischemic preconditioning by regulating HIF-1α gene expression using siRNA technology, but the effect of the siRNA did not reach statistical significance. During the experiment, we found that brain damage significantly affected cardiac function, and that the mitochondrial ATP sensitive potassium channel, which is known to be another important component of preconditioning, played an important role in the phenomenon.
