The isolated air perfused rat heart.

چکیده
A simple method has been developed for continuous monitoring of metabolic activity of an isolated, perfused rat heart by O2/CO2 respirometer. Since respirometer provides vital data on oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production of a preserved organ on a continuous basis over a long period of time, it will be possible to use this method to monitor viability of not only isolated heart but also any given donor organ under preservation.

Role of Fructose as a Potent Antiarrhythmic and Anti-infarct agent in Isolated Rat Heart
In the current study, effects of acute short term administration of fructose on cardiac arrhythmias and myocardial infarction size following ischemia/reperfusion were investigated in isolated rat heart. The hearts were subjected to 30 min zero flow global ischemia followed by 120 min reperfusion. In the control group, the hearts were perfused by normal drug free Krebs-Henseleit (K/H) solution t...

متن کاملEffects of L-Carnitine on Cardiac Apoptosis in Ischemic- Reperfused Isolated Rat Heart
Carnitine is a vital biologic substance for transporting fatty acids into myocytes. It also facilitates fatty acids β-oxidation for energy production. In this study, effects of L-carnitine (L-Car) on apoptosis in the ischemic isolated rat heart were investigated. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups and anesthetized by sodium pentobarbital. The heart was removed and mount...
متن کاملEffect of endotoxemia on heart rate dynamics in rat isolated perfused hearts
Introduction: Beat-to-beat variation in heart rate shows a complex dynamics, and this complexity is changed during systemic inflammatory response syndrome (e.g. sepsis). It is not known whether or not cardiac pacemaker dynamical rhythm is affected by sepsis. The aim of this study was to investigate heart rate dynamics of isolated heart as well as expression of pacemaker channels (HCN) in a r...
متن کاملEffects of Chronic Oral Administration of Natural Honey on Ischemia/Reperfusion-induced Arrhythmias in Isolated Rat Heart
Objective(s) In this study, effects of chronic administration of oral natural honey against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)- induced cardiac arrhythmias were investigated in isolated rat heart. Materials and Methods Male Wistar rats were divided into four groups (n= 10-14 rats in each group) and fed with natural honey (1%, 2% and 4% dissolved in the drinking water) for 45 days except for the con...
متن کاملCardioprotective Effect of Garlic Juice on the Isolated Rat Heart in Ischemia- Reperfusion
Background: It has been reported that the chronic oral administration of garlic homogenate protected the rat heart from in vitro ischemic reperfusion injury. However, the biological effects of garlic juice on the heart are expected to be different from oral administration of it. Objective: the present study was designed to investigate the effect of garlic juice on the isolated rat heart in is...
