Abstract

Myocardial ischemia and reperfusion cause injury to the heart in myocardial ischemic disease. Both processes increase autophagy. In this chapter, we will provide an overview of the autophagic mechanism caused by myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury and the role of autophagy in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.
