During cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury, reactive oxygen species (ROS) level is markedly increased, leading to oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Although granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is known to be cardioprotective, its effects on cardiac mitochondria during oxidati...
