  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In mice, AICAR preconditioning prevented the ischemia/reperfusion-induced increase in leukocyte-endothelial adhesive interactions.

    In plain wordsIn mice, AICAR preconditioning prevented increased leukocyte adhesion after ischemia/reperfusion compared with no preconditioning.

    Summary
    I/R induced marked increases in LEI relative to sham control mice, proadhesive responses that were prevented by AICAR-PC 24 hours prior to I/R.

    Summary · context
    Intravital fluorescence microscopy was used to quantify LEI in the small intestine of AICAR-preconditioned C57BL/6J mice treated with K(ATP) channel or heme oxygenase inhibitors during I/R 24 hours after AICAR-PC in separate experiments.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

In this study, AICAR (acadesine) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking AICAR (acadesine).

    In mice, K(ATP) channel inhibition abolished the antiadhesive effect of AICAR preconditioning during ischemia/reperfusion.

    In plain wordsIn mice, potassium channel inhibition removed AICAR preconditioning's protection against leukocyte adhesion compared with preconditioning alone.
