Summary

Restoring the patency of the coronary vessels and providing the ischemic myocardium with reperfused blood can cause additional tissue damage. A key element of ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury and major determinant of the evolution of damage in the affected myocardium is the inflammatory response. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of colchicine in reducing I/R injury by effectively modulating the inflammatory response in the reperfused myocardium.
