The complex cardiac surgery patient population was selected as having a predictable need for RBC transfusions to replace surgical blood loss with increased susceptibility to the effects of tissue hypoxia due to the nature of the surgery, the use of cardiopulmonary bypass and generally older age [25]
Mice in the normal control group were given the same volume of PBS in the same way
Sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy drugs was then compared in A2780 and A2780/GSTP1 cells and significant differences in chemosensitivity observed following treatment with cisplatin (2.28-fold decrease in IC 50, P =0.03, Figure 2B) and carboplatin (4.83-fold decrease in IC 50, P =0.007, Figure 2C), and a less pronounced decrease in sensitivity to paclitaxel (1.58-fold increase in IC 50, P =0.02, Figure 2D)
The high molecular weight proteins of the mitochondrial matrix, which cannot move through the mPTP, also contribute to the increased colloidal osmotic pressure
