Hyperpolarized magnetic resonance shows that the antiischemic drug meldonium leads to increased flux through pyruvate dehydrogenase in vivo resulting in improved postischemic function in the diabetic heart
The diabetic heart has a decreased ability to metabolize glucose. The anti‐ischemic drug meldonium may provide a route to counteract this by reducing l‐carnitine levels, resulting in improved cardiac glucose utilization. Therefore, the aim of this study was to use the novel technique of hyperpolariz...
