Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor reduces infarct size and preserves cardiac function via mitochondrial protection in ischaemia-reperfusion rat heart

Aim: We hypothesized that dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitor (vildagliptin) reduces fatal arrhythmias, cardiac dysfunction and infarct size caused by ischaemiareperfusion (I/R) injury via its attenuation of cardiac mitochondrial dysfunction. Methods: In total, 26 rats were randomized to receive...
