“Combined addition of PCr and tocopherol further increased the developed pressure and rate-pressure product to 72(4) mm Hg and 284(23) mm Hg.s-1, respectively.”
“Protective effects of PCr and tocopherol are quantitatively additive, most probably due to their different mechanisms of action, and tocopherol may be effective in extending the ability of PCr to stabilise cell membrane structure.”
“Similarly, PCr and tocopherol in combination provided substantial inhibition of creatine kinase release into perfusate, at 3.8(0.4) v 10.9(2.5) IU in controls, p less than 0.05.”
