## Abstract __Purpose:__ To determine whether the supplementation of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH~4~, an essential cofactor of nitric oxide synthase; NOS) could attenuate endothelial dysfunction and improve NOS activity and cell viability in skeletal muscle after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). __Methods:__

## Abstract While the sequence of biochemical and cellular events in the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion injury is increasingly well understood, the way that these processes interact at the level of microcirculation to promote a distinctive reperfusion injury is less well defined. It is becomi
## Abstract The mechanism of water and sodium apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) changes in rat skeletal muscle during global ischemia was examined by in vivo ^1^H and ^23^Na magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). The ADCs of Na^+^ and water are expected to have similar characteristics because so
