Cas impair oxygen consumption and energetic metabolites. Isolated rat hearts were used to measure the effect of Cas IC50 and Doxo (5 μM) on mechanical (RPP) and metabolic coupling (oxygen consumption (MVO2) relationship) (a), MVO2 (b), ATP content (c), and myocardial PCr/ATP ratio (d). Values are mean ± SEM. versus control ( experiments at least for each treatment).
