Studies on digitalis. XVI. Effects on myocardial oxygen consumption.

The effects of cardiac glycosides on myocardial oxygen consumption (MVo2) have been investigated extensively, and although the results of these studies have not been entirely uniform, it is now generally considered that these agents are "the only drugs which increase the force of contraction of the myocardium without at the same time increasing oxygen consumption" (1). The finding in previous i...

XVI International Symposium on Atherosclerosis

Chemokines and their receptors are crucial mediators and regulators of leukocyte trafficking and homeostasis during immune surveillance and inflammation, which underlie the development and progression of atherosclerosis. The abundance of chemokines suggests that specific functional roles, with cooperative or synergistic interactions between the chemokine subfamilies provide a balance between pr...
