In swine with myocardial ischemia/reperfusion, MTP-131 given before VA-ECMO activation reduced infarct size compared with reperfusion alone.
In plain wordsIn pigs, MTP-131 given before ECMO started reduced heart-attack damage compared with reperfusion alone.

We examined cardiolipin and tafazzin levels in human subjects with heart failure and healthy swine exposed to VA-ECMO and used a swine model of closed-chest myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury to evaluate the effect of VA-ECMO on cardiolipin expression, myocardial injury, and mitochondrial function.
To explore whether cardiolipin depletion by VA-ECMO increases infarct size, we performed left anterior descending artery occlusion for a total of 120 minutes followed by 180 minutes of reperfusion in adult swine in the presence and absence of MTP-131, an amphipathic molecule that interacts with card…
