Abstract
⺠Cardioprotection by ischemic postconditioning (IPostC) is lost in diabetic hearts. ⺠The loss of cardioprotection by IPostC during diabetes is partly associated with a failure to increase CGRP and SP release, likely due to decreased TRPV1 expression and CGRP and SP contents in diabetic hearts. ⺠Exogenous application of CGRP or SP can restore the cardioprotection by IPostC in diabetic hearts.
