GW26-e2453 Beneficial Effect of Lycopene on Hypoxia/Reoxygenation-Induced Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Neonatal Mouse Cardiomyocytes

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has become an important therapeutic target for myocardial ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury. It has been reported that lycopene exhibits great pharmacological effect in alleviating myocardial I/R-injury, but whether it attenuates ER stress remains to be elucidated.
