KROK 1 2010 – Question 122 · KROK (Medicine) · Biological Chemistry

A patient suffering from stenocardia was taking nitroglycerine which caused restoration of blood supply of myocardium and relieved pain in the cardiac area. What intracellular mechanism provides restoration of energy supply of insulted cells?

  1. A. Intensification of ATP resynthesis
  2. B. Intensification of RNA generation
  3. C. Reduction of ATP resynthesis
  4. D. Intensification of oxygen transporting into the cell
  5. E. Increased permeability of membranes
Hint

Nitroglycerine improves coronary flow and so the supply of oxygen; ask what the mitochondria can do again once oxygen is available, to restore the energy supply of the insulted cell.
