Abstract
Ischemia (hypoxia)/reperfusion (I/R) primarily caused by atherosclerosis and thrombosis, induces tissue injury and organ malfunction, and is therefore, an important clinical problem. Understanding the cellular mechanisms of enhancing cell survival or preventing cell death during I/R could lead to development of strategies to treat this health problem.
