چکیده
This review deals briefly with the clinical pharmacology of digoxin and reviews in some depth the problems inherent in methods of digoxin measurement. Digoxin-like factors (materials that cross react in digoxin immunoassays) are discussed, and some current evidence suggesting the existence of a new hormone, endoxin (endogenous digoxin), is summarized.

Decreased cardiac responsiveness to adrenergic stimulation has been observed in cholestatic liver disease, but the cause remains unclear. Previous reports have suggested that nitric oxide overproduction might have a role in cholestasis-induced bradycardia via inhibition of L-type calcium channels. In the present study, the digoxin has been used to increase cardiac Ca2+ transient in male Sprague...
