Antithrombin III Alleviates Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury by Inhibiting Excessive Autophagy in a Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase/Akt-Dependent Manner

Autophagy is fundamental to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Antithrombin III (AT) has been shown to protect cardiomyocytes against I/R injury; however, it is unknown whether it modulates autophagy. The objective of this study was to investigate whether AT regulates autophagy during I/R...
