amphetamine and Injury, Myocardial Reperfusion

amphetamine has been researched along with Injury, Myocardial Reperfusion in 2 studies

Amphetamine: A powerful central nervous system stimulant and sympathomimetic. Amphetamine has multiple mechanisms of action including blocking uptake of adrenergics and dopamine, stimulation of release of monamines, and inhibiting monoamine oxidase. Amphetamine is also a drug of abuse and a psychotomimetic. The l- and the d,l-forms are included here. The l-form has less central nervous system activity but stronger cardiovascular effects. The d-form is DEXTROAMPHETAMINE.
1-phenylpropan-2-amine : A primary amine that is isopropylamine in which a hydrogen attached to one of the methyl groups has been replaced by a phenyl group.
amphetamine : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of (R)-amphetamine (also known as levamphetamine or levoamphetamine) and (S)-amphetamine (also known as dexamfetamine or dextroamphetamine.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The results demonstrate that amphetamine can induce whole-body heat shock that can precondition the heart, enhancing cellular tolerance to ischemia-reperfusion injury."3.69Drug-induced heat-shock preconditioning improves postischemic ventricular recovery after cardiopulmonary bypass. ( Das, DK; Deaton, DW; Engelman, RM; Flack, JE; Liu, X; Maulik, N; Rousou, JA; Wei, Z, 1995)
" In this study, we examined the effects of heat shock induced by amphetamine on postischemic myocardial functional recovery in a setting of coronary revascularization for acute myocardial infarction."3.69Improved postischemic ventricular functional recovery by amphetamine is linked with its ability to induce heat shock. ( Das, DK; Engelman, RM; Liu, X; Maulik, N; Rousou, JA; Wei, Z, 1994)
