A brief period of ischemia and reperfusion has been shown to protect the myocardium against subsequent sustained ischemia and reperfusion injury, which is called "preconditioning". A great number of investigators have explored the mechanisms underlying this preconditioning-induced cardioprotection. This article dealt with possible mechanisms of energy metabolism and mitochondrial activity for preconditioning-induced cardioprotection. Particularly, the contribution of energy metabolites produced during a brief period of ischemia and reperfusion injury, as well as mitochondrial function that is modified by changes in mitochondrial ATPase activity, opening of mitochondrial ATP-dependent potassium channels and production of free radicals in mitochondria, to ischemic preconditioning is discussed.
