Electrophysiological effects of resveratrol on guinea pig papillary muscles.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the electrophysiological effects of resveratrol on guinea pig papillary muscles and the underlying mechanism. Action potentials were recorded by using intracellular microelectrode technique. The results obtained are as follows: (1) In normal papillary muscles, resveratrol (30, 60, and 120 micromol/L) shortened the duration of action potential (APD) i...
متن کاملEffects of taurine on slow action potentials in papillary muscles of guinea pig.
AIM To examine the effects of taurine on the slow action potentials induced by KCl 24 mmol.L(-1) or tetrodotoxin 40 mumol.L(-1) in guinea pig papillary muscles. METHODS The transmembrane AP was recorded by a conventional glass microelectrode filled with KCl 3 mmol.L(-1). The muscles were exposed to high K(+)-Tyrode's solution or perfused with Tyrode's solution containing tetrodotoxin. Ouabain...
متن کاملHypoxic Region of Guinea Pig and Ferret Papillary Muscles
Papillary muscles were mounted in a three-compartment bath. The tip of the muscle was exposed to hypoxic and glucose-free solution. The other parts of the preparation were superfused with Tyrode's solution, building a free-flow border between hypoxic and normoxic superfusates. The normoxic part of the bath was subdivided by a rubber membrane so that current pulses could be applied between segme...
متن کاملElectrophysiological effects of CI-980, a tubulin binding agent, on guinea-pig papillary muscles.
1. The electrophysiological effects of CI-980, a new tubulin-binding agent that inhibits assembly of cytoplasmic microtubules, on transmembrane action potential characteristics were studied in right ventricular papillary muscles from guinea-pig hearts. 2. In papillary muscles driven at 1 Hz, CI-980 at concentrations > or = 10(-5) M produced a concentration-dependent increase in the maximum upst...
متن کاملRate-dependent effects of hypoxia on internal longitudinal resistance in guinea pig papillary muscles.
We have studied the independent and combined effects of 30 minutes' exposure to hypoxia and an increase in stimulation frequency from 0.5 Hz to 3.0 Hz on internal longitudinal resistance (ri) and conduction in guinea pig papillary muscles through the use of the voltage ratio method with air as the external insulator. Increasing stimulation frequency from 0.5 to 3.0 Hz in the presence of O2 caus...
