Abstract Background A major endogenous protective mechanism in many organs against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is ischemic preconditioning (IPC). By moderately uncoupling the mitochondrial respiratory chain and decreasing production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), IPC reduces apoptosis induced by I/R reducing cytochrome c release from mitochondria. One element believed to contribute reduce ROS protein UCP2 (and UCP3 heart). Although its implication brain has been shown vitro, no vivo...
