Recent studies have suggested the beneficial effects of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors against myocardial ischemic-reperfusion injury. This study was designed to compare the cardioprotective effects of two sulfhydryl ACE inhibitors, captopril and zofenopril, with those of a nonsulfhy
