چکیده

1. We have studied the acute effects of frusemide, triamterene and amiloride on potassium exchange, the action potential and mechanical function of isolated rabbit myocardium. 2. Potassium exchange in the myocardium was unaltered by these diuretics. 3. Frusemide and amiloride did not affect the action potential of rabbit papillary muscles. Triamterene caused a transient shortening of the action potential. 4. Frusemide and triamterene did not alter myocardial mechanical function in rabbit papillary muscles or the interventricular septum. Amiloride caused a reduction of about 5% in developed tension in two out of three papillary muscles.

The effects of verapamil, quiescence, and cardioplegia on calcium exchange and mechanical function in ischemic rabbit myocardium.

The effects of verapamil (1 mg/liter, 2 x 10(-6) mol/liter), quiescence, and cardioplegia (K+ 16 mmol/liter, Mg2+ 16 mmol/liter) on calcium exchange and mechanical function during ischemia and reperfusion have been investigated in the rabbit interventricular septum at 32 degrees C. Calcium influx and efflux were recorded continuously with 47Ca2+ and 45Ca2+. After 60 minutes of total ischemia an...

Effects of ionic parameters on behavior of a skeletal muscle fiber model

All living cells have a membrane which separates inside the cell from it's outside. There is a potential difference between inside and outside of the cell. This potential difference will change during an action potential. It is quite common to peruse action potentials of skeletal muscle fibers with the Hodgkin-Huxley model. Since Hodgkin and Huxley summarized some controlling currents like inwa...
