N-2-mercaptopropionylglycine, a Scavanger of Reactive Oxygen Species, does not Modify the Early Antiarrhythmic Effect of Ischaemic Preconditioning in Anaesthetised Dogs

Objective: The possible involvement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the protective effects of ischaemic preconditioning (PC) against arrhythmias was examined in anaesthetised dogs using the ROS scavenger N-2-mercaptopropionylglycine (MPG).
