Postconditioning with rosuvastatin reduces myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by inhibiting high mobility group box 1 protein expression

High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) plays an important role in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Rosuvastatin (RS) preconditioning has been reported to reduce myocardial I/R injury. The aim of this study was to investigate whether postconditioning with RS is able to reduce myocardi...
