Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Any reduction in myocardial oxygen delivery relative to its demands can impair cardiac contractile performance. Understanding the mitochondrial metabolic response to hypoxia is key to understanding ischemia tolerance in the myocardium. We used a novel combination of 2 genome-scale methods to study key processes underlying human myocardial hypoxia tolerance. In particular, we hypothesized that...
