Energetic study of cardioplegic hearts under ischaemia/reperfusion and [Ca2+] changes in cardiomyocytes of guinea‐pig: mitochondrial role :: ConclusionsCPG, diazoxide and clonazepam improve postischaemic recovery, respectively, by increasing the Ca2+ cycling and by reducing the mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake either by uniporter or by mNCX. The mitochondria compete with the leaky sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) as sink of Ca2+ in guinea‐pig hearts, affecting the postischaemic contractility. CPG also prevented the ouabain‐induced dysfunction by avoiding the Ca2+ overload. Ouabain reduced the synergism between CPG and clonazepam suggesting that [Na+]i and SR load influence the mNCX role.
