In Vivo Isosorbide dinitrate (3 mg/kg; intratracheal; for 13 days) improves pulmonary artery pressure and ventricular remodeling in a rat model of heart failure following myocardial infarction[1]. Isosorbide dinitrate postconditioning exhibits a cardioprotective effect against rat myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in vivo[2]. Animal Model: 5–6 weeks old male juvenile Sprague-Dawley rats (200–250 g)[1] Dosage: 3 mg/kg Administration: Intratracheal; for 13 days following coronary ligation Result: Reduced MI size and alleviated left and right ventricular remodeling following MI.
