Popis: Injection of dinitrosyl iron complexes with glutathione at the onset of 40-min regional myocardial ischemia in rat was shown to exert a clear cardioprotective action by decreasing the infarct size and suppressing the cardiac rhythm disturbance. After introducing the preparation, its effective accumulation with protein thiol-containing ligands in the myocardial tissue was registered be the EPR method. It was also found that in postischemic reperfusion, the rate of decrease in the content of these complexes in the ischemic area increases, which reflects effective scavenging of short-lived reactive oxygen species by the dinitrosyl iron complexes.
