Ischemia-reperfusion is observed in various diseases such as myocardium infarct. Different theories have been proposed to explain the reperfusion injury, among them that the free radical generation plays a crucial role. To study the mechanisms of the reperfusion injury, a hypoxia (H)-reoxygenation (
The adult T cell leukemia-derived factor (ADF), or human thioredoxin (hTRX), has a radical scavenging effect similar to that of N-acetyl cysteine (NAC). We have recently shown that ADF/hTRX protects the lung and the heart from ischemiareperfusion induced injury. To elucidate mechanisms of the protec
