Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) not only causes cardiac damage, but also causes severe renal damage. T8 is the 8th peptide identified by peptiomics in digested yak milk dregs and our previous studies showed that T8 had strong antioxidant activity. This study evaluated the protective effects and molecular mechanisms of MI/R-induced kidney injury in rats. Our results indicated that peptide T8 could increase ejection fraction (EF) and shortened fraction (FS), and degraded ST segment elevation, which ameliorated cardiac function in the MI/R rats. Peptide T8 could increase activities of supe...
