Coronary Artery Disease, Diabetes Mellitus
Mitochondrial Bioenergetics and Role in Cellular Damage in Ischemic Myocardium
Cardiac ischemia is a common pathological condition, known to elicit multiple pathological processes at the cellular level. One of the most affected is thought to be cellular metabolism, key for the adequate cardiac function.
