Febuxostat pretreatment attenuates myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury via mitochondrial apoptosis

BACKGROUND: Febuxostat is a selective inhibitor of xanthine oxidase (XO). XO is a critical source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Inhibition of XO is therapeutically effective in I/R injury. Evidence suggests that febuxostat exerts antioxidant ef...
