Effects of magnesium on isolated rabbit atria.
The cardiac effects of magnesium were studied on 40 spontaneously beating rabbit atria at 37 degrees C. Magnesium administered in doses of 30, 60, 120 and 240 mmol elicited dose dependent negative inotropic and chronotropic responses. Larger doses above 240 mmol caused complete atrial arrest. Further it was observed that propranolol with magnesium became more effective in blocking the positive ...
متن کاملSinus node automaticity during atrial fibrillation in isolated rabbit hearts.
BACKGROUND It is still unclear what role the sinus node may play in the genesis or perpetuation of atrial fibrillation. Therefore, we studied the electrical activity in different regions of the sinus node during atrial fibrillation. METHODS AND RESULTS In Langendorff-perfused rabbit hearts, paroxysms of atrial fibrillation were induced by burst pacing. Standard microelectrode techniques were ...
متن کاملBarium-induced automaticity in relation to calcium ions and norepinephrine in the rabbit left atrium.
Membrane potentials were recorded from a region of the left atrium close to the interatrial septum and from an atrial appendage. Pacemaker activity was induced after exposure to Ba + . The magnitude of the resting potential and of the overshoot decreased with increasing [Ba + ]o, whereas duration of the action potential and rise time increased with increasing [Ba + ]o. Electrical stimulation fo...

متن کاملEffect of Sodium Valproate on Ouabain-Induced Arrhythmia in Isolated Guinea-Pig Atria
Sodium valproate (SV), an antiepileptic drug has several mechanism of action. It inhibits voltage sensitive Na+ channels and reduces intracellular Na accumulation. These actions are similar to that of both phenytoin and carbamazepine. We have investigated the direct cardiac action of SV and its effects on ouabain-induced arrhythmia in isolated guinea-pig atria. The guinea-pig atrium was dissect...
