Background Myocardial injury after ischemia and reperfusion can be attributed largely to the effects of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). The complement system plays an important role as a chemotactic agent, affecting adhesion molecule expression and neutrophil accumulation.Methods and Results In the present study, the cardioprotective effects of C1 esterase inhibitor (C1 INH) were examined in a feline model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (90 minutes of ischemia followed by 270 minutes of reperfusion). C1 INH (15 mg/kg) administered 10 minutes before reperfusion significantly attenuated myocardial necrosis compared with vehicle (10+/-2% and 29+/-2% necrosis as a proportion of area at risk, respectively; P
