Objectives: Machine perfusion may become a platform for cardioprotective approaches, enabling repair and reconditioning of donor hearts. Ischemic preconditioning (PC) is a powerful means of cardioprotection. Triiodothyronine (T3) is shown to repair the injured myocardium and recently this cardioprotective action was demonstrated in an ex vivo rat heart normothermic perfusion model. This study investigated potential effects of low-flow PC with and without T3 administration in a...
